From Sunshine to Snowflakes: It’s time for Christmas in July!

Are you enjoying the sizzle of summer, but looking for something fun to do indoors? We’ve launched just the contest for you! It’s CHRISTMAS IN JULY! Picture yourself surrounded by snowy landscapes and sledding down icy hills. Let your imagination whisk you away to a winter wonderland through art and craft.

We’ve teamed up with our pals at the Forest Products Association of Canada (FPAC) to bring the contest back for another year! Create an earth-friendly piece of art that shows off the beauty of trees and forests for a chance for your artwork to be chosen as FPAC’s Christmas card for everyone to admire!

Last year’s holiday card contest was a huge hit, we can’t wait to see what you’ll create this year! We’ve got a new set of prizes this year.

Here’s what you can win:

Here’s what you need to know:

1. Your artwork can be a painting, or drawing, or you can get creative with forest materials you find on the ground!
2. Make your art earth-friendly! Get creative with old paper scraps as a base for your drawing, or piece together a collage.
3. The more creative your artwork, the better! Take a walk through your favourite forest for inspiration, or think of a special tree that caught your eye. Can you capture that moment on paper?
4. Your submission doesn’t have to be festive, but if you feel like getting into the holiday spirit, bring it on!
