Attention all artists:
The 6th Annual
Street Smarts Storybook Poster Contest presented by Sunset Development Company
is here! Elementary school
children from throughout the San Ramon Valley are encouraged to draw
illustrations for Street Smarts’ third traffic safety storybook, “The Giant’s
Party” by local author Dana Mentink. In the story, Jack climbs the beanstalk
up to the giant’s castle and receives instructions to deliver party invitations
to other storybook characters.
Jack learns about bicycle, scooter, skateboard, and rollerblade safety
along the way.
The
winning illustrations will be featured in the final ten-page storybook and will
be distributed to thousands of children in the San Ramon Valley at libraries
and community centers. The ten
winners will get their own treasure: a Flip Video Camcorder and art kit. The winning artwork and final storybook
will be unveiled at the Storybook Poster Contest Awards Ceremony on March 11,
2010 at the Dougherty Valley Performing Arts Center.
Students
in grades K-5 of all artistic abilities are encouraged to participate. The contest ends February 8, 2010. Entry forms and contest information can
