Spotlight on art in Slatington
The Woman’s Club of Slatington held its annual Arts Contest on Monday, culminating with a Community Arts Night at the Slatington Public Library.
More than 120 entries were submitted by over 100 artists. Participants ranged from kindergarten students to adults, both club members and nonmembers. Categories in the contest were coloring, 2-D and 3-D art, fiber art, poetry and photography. Ribbons were awarded to first, second and third place winners in each category, and cash prizes were awarded to student winners in grades 3 to 12.

All those interested, 18 years of age and older, are welcome to attend. For more information, leave a message on the club’s Facebook page.
