International Jewellery Competition will be the main event of the Legnica Jewellery Festival SILVER 2025. The competition has been organized by the Gallery of Art in Legnica since 1979 (initially as the National Review of the Goldsmiths Forms). It is one of the oldest initiatives to promote contemporary artistic jewellery in Europe, supporting creative explorations within a niche field at the intersection of art, craft and design.

Artists from all over the world, goldsmiths, designers, professional and amateur jewellery makers are invited to participate in the contest. The competition is artistic in nature, and the organizers leave artists full freedom of choice of techniques and materials, noting that a key criterion for evaluation is a clear reference to the competition's main theme (WOW Effect!). The use of silver in the submitted work – while it remains a suggestion of the organizers – is not required. 

Global Creative Graduate Showcase 2024 is the fifth edition of this initiative and was open to all art & design students graduating in the year 2023-24 (undergraduate, graduate & postgraduate) in any related creative discipline, located anywhere in the world. This year over 5000 students uploaded their end of year projects, making it the biggest online showcase of graduating creatives worldwide. Arts Thread's panel of independent expert judges selected the shortlist (THERE).

The director of the Gallery of Art in Legnica participated in the selection as a jury member in the fine art / photography / craft / jewelry section.
