The competition was co-organized by the Russian Center for Science and Culture, the Hanoi Children's Palace and the Vietnam Union of Friendship Organizations, in celebration of the Cosmonautics Day (April 12).

At the exhibition, a representative of the Russian center said that the painting competition this year is of significance as it marks the 80th birthday of Valentina Tereshkova, the first female cosmonaut, and 60 years since the first man-made satellite was launched into space.

The awarding ceremony is scheduled to take place on April 21 evening at the Russian center.
