Get out the crayons, markers, and paints and get those creative juices flowing – Morgan Hill students can win $100 in the city’s Seventh Annual Environmental Poster Design Contest. The theme of this year’s contest is “Morgan Hill Recycles!” Entries should relate to recycling or other topics that promote care for our environment.
In addition to a $100 first place prize in each grade category, all winners will receive a certificate signed by Morgan Hill Mayor Dennis Kennedy.
Entries will be judged in three categories: Grades K-3, grades 4-6, and grades 7-12. Entries from each grade category will be selected as finalists and the winners will be chosen by the public at the City of Morgan Hill Art and Science Fair on Earth Day April 22, 3-6pm at the Community and Cultural Center, 17000 Monterey Road. First place, second place, third place and honorable mention will be selected for each grade category.
The posters must be no larger than 11 inches by 17 inches, and should have a one inch border on all sides (a blank space between the art and the edge of the paper). Students can use any material, but entries should be easy to reproduce with a scanner. Art must be dry when it is submitted.
The student’s name, telephone number, address, age, school name, teacher’s name, and grade level must be on the back of each entry. All entries must be original work. Clip art and copies of other work will be disqualified.
The deadline for entries is April 1, at 5pm. Entries must be submitted to City Hall, 17555 Peak Ave., Morgan Hill, CA 95037, ATTN: Poster Contest.
Winning entries become the property of the City of Morgan Hill. Other entries must be picked up between April 23-30 at City Hall.
