About
A series of art contests, including a notable 2015 event in Garland, Texas, organized primarily by anti-Islam advocacy groups to challenge prohibitions on depicting the Prophet Muhammad in Islamic tradition. These events were framed as exercises in free speech but were widely criticized as provocative and Islamophobic, intended to provoke reactions to depictions of Muhammad.
