Summer might be in full swing, but we’ve got a different holiday on the brain here at Earth Rangers. Our friends at FPAC (The Forest Products Association of Canada) want your help: they’re working on designing this year’s holiday card, and they want to feature YOU front and center! Simply create a piece of art that captures the beauty of trees and forests, then submit it to win one of THREE swag bags full of goodies, plus a chance to have your artwork featured on their Christmas card!
Here’s what you need to know:
1. Your artwork can be a painting, 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 holiday-themed, but if you’re in the spirit, bring it on!
Need inspiration? Why not try this tree-rific quiz?!
This contest is all about celebrating trees and forests! Whether you’re fun and spunky, sweet to the core, or elegant and classy, there’s a tree out there that matches your personality.
