Something Good Ornament Contest

 

This year unleashed an avalanche of negativity, illness, and financial struggle. We all could use a break from thinking about it. So we are going take a little time to share a bit of positivity. We are inviting IATSE Local 26 members, referents, and their families to create something good. Think about what has given you solace this year. It could be a favorite song, place, character, anything that makes you happy. Are you looking forward to Christmas, New Years, or Inauguration Day? Maybe playing in the snow or curling up with your teddy bear? Then break out the arts and craft supplies. Make an ornament to celebrate it and share some joy.

Ornament must be:

• Homemade
• Between 1 inch and 6 inches in diameter
• Must hang from a string
• Be something GOOD

I understand some of our stagehands are proud to have the blackened soul of the condemned but this is a family contest. No vulgar, suggestive, or hurtful entries will be accepted.

Send photos of ornaments to mail@iatse26.org please include artist’s name and age (or just indicate artist is over 18). Entries must be submitted by no later than 5pm Friday December 18th .  ***Sunday 12/20 at 5pm*** (extended entry time). Winner’s ornaments will be featured on social media. We have prizes appropriate to each age group and gift bags for participating children. Winners and parents will be contacted about contact free prize pick up or delivery.

Age groups:

• Under 6s
• 7-12s
• 13-18
• 18+

Prizes will be awarded based on creativity, inspiration, and theme. To the lucky winner of the Broadway Puzzle, I highly recommend listening to the cast recordings while working on the puzzle. It doesn’t help you solve it any faster but it does make every move seem very dramatic!
