Entries needed for Municipal Government Day Youth Art Contest

The annual Municipal Government Day Youth Art Contest is once again looking for entries.

This year’s theme is 100 Years Young, with entries needing to incorporate Grande Prairie’s history, or its growth into the future.

Kids up to grade 12 have until June 6th to submit entries.

Grade 3 and younger children can do drawings in either pencil, wax crayon, markers, or pastels.

Students in grades 4-12 can do drawings of any kind, or can also submit a 3 minute movie, or a 10-20 image power point, depending on age.

Entries can be dropped off at City Hall, with the winners being announced June 11th at Municipal Government Day.

The winner in each category gets a bicycle, while the top overall winner will also receive an iPad.
