Time Enough Easter 2026

Fait gys Blein ny Gaelgey – Welcome to the year of the Manx Language 2026.

We wanted to celebrate this incredible year by creating our own competition. Time Enough is the English translation of the Manx phrase “Traa Dy Lioor” and our moto is there is always “time enough” to do the things you want, which is why we have dedicated this website to all the amazing things you can do on the Island.

Time to relax, colouring our inspiring illustrations, created by Manx artist, Christina Corkill. Award winning painter Christina, attended the Isle of Man Art Foundation course, before studying Fine Art in Florence. Her designs reflect Manx Culture and Folklore, depicting Basking Sharks from our coasts, and the Manx Cat, together with our night sky, with wild fuchsia and a few magical elements.

The competition will be judged by Dr Breesha Maddrell, head of Culture Vannin. Culture Vannin believes in developing exciting projects which enable us to engage meaningfully in our Island life, developing and supporting Manx Culture.

This competition is open to Isle of Man residents only. If you live off Island, you can always do it for fun, but sorry, no prizes.

  1. Download Christina’s beautiful illustrations and colour in.
  2. You can choose to do only one or both designs.
