Calling all window painters, artists and creative volunteers! This year is more challenging than past ones, but we will not let that come in the way of our community spirit! We want to make Downtown as magical, bright, fun and inviting as can be. So instead of the traditional Santa Parade, downtown businesses will offer illustrated pages from favorite storybooks such as A Christmas Carol, The Nutcracker, Frosty the Snowman, Buddy the Elf and so many more. How? Gia...nt printed paper cut outs. Painted windows. Traditional decorations. Projected video on a white background. Animatronic characters. Dressed up mannequins. Perforated decals for outside windows. Every creative idea you can think of! Who? So, if you are an artist, a window painter or would like to volunteer, email us at [email protected] Or if that is not for you instead you can sponsor one of our local stores!
