WHAT
Create to Donate is a partnership between The ZIPPER JUNCTION Project™ and The COMMUNITY TAPESTRY PROJECT to artistically share Holiday messages, insights, tributes, hopes and wishes.
There is no cost to participate. But everyone is encouraged to share the link to your artwork with neighbors, co-workers, family and friends and invite them to consider a donation. Submissions open OCTOBER 1st.
Pocono Secrets will donate $1 for each entry.
Artists can gain exposure to a wider audience. New artists can take the important first step of sharing their art. Holiday enthusiasts can share the joy through creative play. Whatever reason you create art, a picture is worth a thousand words. What will you say?
WHY
Holidays are a time of celebration. Unfortunately, not everyone has the resources to celebrate in a way that most of us have the privilege to enjoy.
The Holiday DONATION Drive brought to you by The ZIPPER JUNCTION Project™ strives to ensure that children in need, residing in Wayne and Pike Counties, are served by this local community effort.
