Announcing the WINNERS of Thompson's 2024 Draw the Future Competition

For over thirty years, the Thompson Organization has been sparking the creativity of local young minds with their exciting Draw the Future Contest. Overflowing with imagination and boundless aspirations, kids from kindergarten to sixth grade across Bucks and Montgomery counties were invited to envision the next-generation Toyota, Lexus, or BMW - and the results were simply breathtaking!

This year saw a record-breaking 1600+ submissions from 48 local schools, making it the most popular edition since the competition began back in 1991. Winners were chosen for each grade, totaling twenty-one talented individuals.

The award ceremony took place on Thursday, April 18th, at Thompson Toyota in Doylestown, where the creative minds behind the winning entries claimed their prizes. We're excited to announce the winners of this year's Draw the Future Contest...

2024 Grand Prize Winner:

The grand prize went to Mathilda Nicholson from Central Bucks, whose visionary artwork now graces a local billboard on Durham Rd. (Rt. 413) in Newtown, PA, captivating passersby until May 30th.
