The Cultural Arts Council Douglasville/Douglas County (CAC) in partnership with Keep Douglas County Beautiful was proud to present the 3rd Annual Wonderland Yard Art Contest. Community organizations were invited to be a part of the fun this year and channel their inner creativity! The yard art could reflect a mission, organization, business, or a family’s imagination and artistic talents based on the Wonderland theme for our annual Mad Hatter’s Tea Party held on March 18th. The yard art was on display on the front lawn of the CAC through March 31st. The yard art was judged on a combination of theme, presentation/appearance, and durability by a panel of judges. Bonus points were given to yard art displays that are made up of recyclable elements.
The Wonderland Yard Art contest offered cash prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, and bragging rights, of course! This year’s winners are the following:
1st Place: Lithia Springs Public Library
2nd Place: Douglas County Young Professionals
3rd Place: The Nichols Center
Peoples Choice: Douglas County Young Professionals
