CHRISTMAS IN ROSELAND 2019 CALENDAR

CHRISTMAS CARDS TO THE COMMUNITY

CCC art program began 25 years ago to create a unique opportunity for highlighting the creative talents of local school students. We give participating schools a 4′x8′ piece of plywood to make their masterpiece on. The cards are judged by area artists and business people. Awards are given to First, Second and Third places in Elementary, Middle and High School divisions. A Best of Show is also awarded.
