Congratulations to Monica Wilcox of St. Leo School in Versailles who won 3rd place in the Grades 6-8 division of Catholic Digest magazine's "Kids Care Too!" poster contest for 2008. Monica's art teacher is Rosie Fedorchuk, who, of course, continues to be an enthusiastic participant in our Arts Consortium events.
The theme of the contest was "Make Your World a Better Place," and young artists were asked to create a poster that shows kids in action. The image of Monica's artwork (seen above) shows her helping feed hungry people in South Africa. In an excerpt included in the Catholic Digest article, Monica wrote "When I am older I want to travel to help people."
The article can be found in the March 2008 issue of Catholic Digest. We'll let you know if the article appears later on the Catholic Digest website. We'll also let you know about the contest for 2009, which will be announced in the April issue of Catholic Digest.
Once again, congratualtions to Monica!
