Banner Art in Palm Springs

Over 800 Palm Springs area students from Kindergarten to 12th grade have submitted original drawings hoping to be among those chosen to have their artwork become one of the 50 newly created and hand painted holiday banners that line Palm Canyon Drive during the winter holiday season according to Main Street Palm Springs President Joy Brown Meredith. 



Seeing this makes me miss the daily examples of children's art with the weather forecast in the Victoria Times-Colonist. I remember that the art  seemed to be from school classes but I guess they have parents submit it. This makes more sense than teachers choosing it. 

 I picked this up when I googled it:

Want a chance to see your kids' weather art on the Times Colonist weather page and on our website?

Send an email to localnews@timescolonist.com with "weather art" in the subject line, or mail it to:
Times Colonist (Weather Art)

Art should be by a school-age artist and on a weather theme, and on letter-sized paper (8.5 by 11 inches) with a landscape or horizontal orientation.
