Students in grades kindergarten through second grade at Salamonie School were recently presented with the opportunity to use their art skills for a special project – designing Christmas-themed pieces for a Christmas Card Contest.
The tradition for the contest began last year in Warren when Josh Heim, owner and operator of JH Pottery Works, realized that students in the town of Huntington were able to enter designs with the Mayor’s office in a contest for a town Christmas card. Heim said he wanted to “borrow” the idea and give children in Warren an opportunity to do the same.
