Borough of Ellwood City Holding A Community Garden Poster Contest

The Ellwood City Borough Department of Public Works would like to invite all children between the ages of 4-12 to participate in a Community Garden Poster Contest!

For area residents that may have visited the Community Garden at 5 points in Ewing Park, you may have noticed picture boards on the utility shed. The current drawings were chosen from our coloring contest held in 2020 – and it’s time to refresh the drawings on the shed!

“This is a chore best accomplished by tiny hands and big hearts,” says Rhiannon Schnell. “The shed needs a little color and a lot of happy artwork to keep it looking bright!”

Here are the details:

  • Open to all children between the ages of 4-12 years old that reside in the Borough of Ellwood City
  • One winning design will be chosen from each age group (4-6, 7-9, 10-12) for a total of 3 winning designs.
  • The winning artists will have their artwork prominently displayed in the community garden!

The Community Garden is located at 327 Sims St, Ellwood City, PA, 16117

Official poster contest forms can be picked up by visiting the Borough Electric office at the municipal building. All submissions must be turned in by dropping them off at the Municipal Building or mailing them in no later than April 14, 2023.

Submissions can be mailed to:
Rhiannon Schnell
Public Works, Borough of Ellwood City
525 Lawrence Avenue
Ellwood City, PA 16117

Any questions can be answered by calling (724) 752-6012 or emailing rschnell@ellwoodcityborough.com.

“We look forward to seeing all the talent our children possess,” concludes Schell.

The community garden is a community of volunteers growing fresh produce for the local food bank. Its location can be found at the address of 327 Sims St, Ellwood City, PA, 16117. Follow the Garden on its Facebook.com Page
