Mississippi Public Broadcasting invites children ages 4-12 to participate in the MPB Holiday Card Contest. The winning entry will be featured as the official 2015 MPB holiday greeting card.

The 2015 Holiday Card Contest, open from Sept. 1 to Oct. 31, aims to encourage confidence, creativity and non-verbal communication skills in Mississippi children.

Prizes are awarded to the top three entries. Third place receives a $50 prize package, second place receives a $100 prize package and first place is awarded a $200 prize package. The official MPB holiday greeting card goes out to friends of MPB, including government officials and other Mississippi agencies and organizations.

The entries must incorporate a holiday theme, celebrating the season without being specific to any particular religion. Submissions should be no larger than 9” x 12” and may include any medium or combination of media, such as crayons, line drawings, watercolor or paint.

Each entry should be the child’s original creation and include a completed entry form. For the official entry form and complete list of rules visit www.mpbonline.org/kidsclub. All artwork and forms are due by Oct. 31. 

To submit artwork, email entries to kids.club@mpbonline.org. Emailed submissions are only accepted in these formats: PDF, JPG, GIF, or BMP.
