Description

CALL FOR ARTISTS!
The Antioch Chamber is accepting artist applications and designs for this year's Charity Public Art Program SNOWMEN ON THE CHAIN (of Lakes). ARTISTS-CLICK HERE for complete information and application.
What is a Charity Public Art Program? It's a program comprised of Artists, Sponsors, Art Patrons, and you - the Public - who enjoy seeing unique art in a leisurely setting. After we enjoy a summer season of these unique art pieces, they are all sold at a live auction and the money is donated to local charities!
This year we are featuring 30 handcrafted wooden, flat snowmen for our SNOWMEN ON THE CHAIN. These Snowmen will be scattered throughout Antioch for you to visit throughout the summer months. Each month we host a new contest for your chance to win prizes! In September, all 30 Snowmen go on the Live Auction Block at our Charity Dinner Auction. Proceeds from the Live Auction benefit our local charities! (More info to follow regarding Dinner Auction Date.)
In the past, 2010-2014, the Antioch Chamber had been able to donate over $68,000 to charity! Come join the fun and find your "Snowman".
During June-July-August, you'll find a Map and begin searching for our SNOWMEN ON THE CHAIN as you begin monthly your Scavenger Hunt Contests Each month-a new contest to enjoy! Search through the Snowmen that matches your clues on our Contest Form. Everyone turning in their completed entry forms to the Antioch Chamber have a chance to win $100 in Chamber Gift Certificates!
Maps and Scavenger Hunt Contest Forms will be available at the Antioch Chamber Foyer (this summer). Or you can download these forms in June from our website.
