 Here, Jameson Davis is shown putting last-minute touches on her entry, who looks similar to a Darth Vader character. "I am Luke's father" reads the sign on the right side of her entry.

 David won $80 as the adult first place winner with his entry named Scrappy.

Jamesson Davis won $20 as the younger youth winner. She is a 5th grader at Herington Elementary School.

Makay Davis won $20 as the older youth winner. She is a 9th grader at Herington High School.

The contest was held to encourage latent artists to think outside the box, and off the canvas, to create an original piece from recycled computer parts. The staff at Prairie Chic will be holding other future artistic competitions. Watch the blog for more details in the future as we schedule more of them!

Art class postponed, art competition set next weekend

Looking for something to do next weekend? We have a class and a competition both planned next weekend at our store. Prairie Chic is having our inaugural Recycled Robots Art Competition, 10 a.m. Nov. 15 in our store. There is no entry fee but the winner will receive a $100 prize. We are holding this contest to stimulate latent artistic juices of our area residents. The contest is based on looks and only that since it is an art contest. So artistic types, not technological and computer guru types should come on out! We have this contest open to age 14+ and older alone, or children with parental supervision.  The winning piece will be displayed in our store for 30 days following the event. 

Also, we are postponing our one-stroke glass painting art class that was scheduled to start this Sunday. We will start it instead at 5 p.m. on Nov. 16 and run it Nov. 23 and Nov. 30 at Prairie Chic. The class costs a $40 class fee + $15 supply fee (supplies can be reused for future classes). Interested?!? Rural Hope resident Tana Davis, who painted the End Zone photo shown above, will be leading the class! Call the store at 785-258-8004 to register!
