Art contest announced
PUTNAM — The 2017-2018 “Illustrating America” art contest, sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary Post 1523, will begin in October. Flyers will be going to Putnam schools with the contest details.
The contest is open to Putnam students in grades 6, 7, and 8.  The contest was designed by Auxiliary Member Nicole Panteleakos in order to develop student’s appreciation for America and help them prepare for future art scholarship programs offered by the Post and Auxiliary.  Art is judged by the relationship to Americanism, presentation and clarity of idea.
