2020 Palm Springs Winter Holiday Banner Art Program
Students! Teachers! Families!
Yes! We are doing holiday banners this year!
We have given a lot of thought to the Holiday Banner Art Program this year and decided to offer it to students to give them a sense of continuity and
familiarity during these challenging times. The big difference is that we will have the designs printed rather than hand painted.
Main Street Palm Springs invites children of all ages to design winter season holiday banners to be chosen for display on the light posts in Downtown and Uptown Palm Springs throughout the holiday season. Prizes and certificates will be awarded.
