These talented kids remind us of a quote from Walt Disney, "Our greatest natural resource is the minds of our children." After seeing the skill, thoughtfulness and artistry put into these images, it's clear that the future of our world is bright. Perhaps one day we'll even see some of their ideas integrated into the vehicles at Toyota of Deerfield Beach.

Toyota's annual Dream Car Art Contest kicked off last fall and received over 500 submissions, from which nine winners were chosen. Seven judges, including actor and comedian Cheech Marin and professional designer Craig Kember, made the final decisions based on the following criteria: uniqueness, execution of concept and artistry. Kember stated, "I am blown away by their ability to combine large social issues with artistic and beautiful vehicle creations to come up with new and unique solutions for the future of cars."

As you scroll through the images, we're sure you'll be amazed by the uninhibited creativity and distinctive depictions of future mobility that these talented children have produced. The categories mentioned below indicate the age range for each division: Category 1 (Ages 7 and under), Category 2 (Ages 8-11) and Category 3 (Ages 12-15). These pieces will also be submitted to the World Contest, where the final Gold Award Winners will be selected.
