Pope Leo loves to see a child's faith imagination at work in their artistic masterpieces. In addition to our virtual museum exhibit, we collected artwork from children all around the world to be sent in a gift box right to Pope Leo XIV Vatican City.
Thank you to the thousands who sent in masterpieces—our mailbox is overflowing! Submissions are now closed. Stay tuned for shipping updates!
We were inspired by this beautiful photo of Pope Leo responding to a child's creativity at the Vatican summer camp. (Check it out!)
we think he'll love your creations, too!
“be, indeed, that light of hope. ‘Hope does not disappoint’, Saint Paul tells us in his letter to the Romans (5,5). When I see each and every one of you, when I see how people gather together to celebrate their faith, I discover myself how much hope there is in the world.”
-Pope Leo XIV, address to the young people of Chicago and the whole world
