Four Corners Arts Center is hosting a “Call to Creators” for their first annual
“re
Tree” – A Showcase of Trees Created with Recycled Materials to be held

individuals, community groups, businesses, artists and arts groups! Pledged
participation registration for this event begins on November 7th and

Cash prize of $150 for best overall tree as well as prizes for judge’s
picks will be awarded. 

Trees
will be judged on: best use of recycled,
reclaimed or repurposed materials, construction
& creativity.  We are pleased to announce that Executive

Basic

or repurposed materials, the tree must light up (there are outdoor plugs
available but, consider solar!) must be outdoor friendly and secure when
standing.  Trees should be no smaller
than 5 feet and no taller than 9 feet. 
All trees will be labeled with a 4x6 plaque stating the name(s) of
creator(s) or businesses. 

Trees

event will take place on the grounds of the Meeting House, 3850 Main Road,

ceremony on December 14th 4-6. 
Seasonal, warm refreshments will be served by the outdoor fire.  Carriage rides will also be available through
