Mayor Maloney hosts Holiday Card Contest

Mayor Maloney invites all local young artists in Park Ridge to design his holiday card this year.

Each year the Mayor sends a card to neighboring communities and organizations on behalf of his office and Park Ridge artists in grades K-12 are invited to submit their artwork to have their entry selected as this year’s design.

Mayor Maloney will review the submissions and select the winning design that will be used as the card he sends out on behalf of his office.

Physical cards will be made available for purchase, with all proceeds benefitting the Park Ridge Holiday Lights http://www.parkridgelights.com
