Kids: Calling All Eco-Artists!
Use your artistic talent to help Captain Green GREEN Frederick County: WINNERS’ ART to be published in Earth Day 2010 Coloring Book
Participate in the 2010 Captain Green Greens Frederick County Art Contest. The contest is designed to engage kids to learn about their local environment, draw their own creative depiction of an environmental issue, problem or solution and submit their art for a chance to have it published in our annual coloring book. The books are used in schools, in libraries and in homes around the county. Click here for details: 2010 Eco artist contest information
The art contest is sponsored by The Bicycle Escape located at the corner of Route 26 (Liberty Road) and Monocacy Blvd. in the Shops at Monocacy (tel: 301 663 0007).
Shown at right is Danielle Rinker, co-owner of the Bicycle Escape. Danielle is also the coloring book’s layout artist.
