As part of the Year of the Manx Language and the 35th anniversary of Yn Skimmee Gaelgagh, we are delighted to launch our 2026 Postcard and Stamp Design Competition in conjunction with the Isle of Man Post Office. This Island-wide competition invites children and young people to creatively reimagine traditional Manx myths and legends for today by combining art, imagination and the Manx language. All entries must include some Manx language.

For details on how to get involved as well as a useful Manx vocabulary and phrase sheet, download our information pack below.
