Design Holiday Trading Cards at Gunn Memorial Public Library


  • Gunn Memorial Public Library 5 Wykeham Road Washington, CT, 06793 United States (map)

Deadline to submit: March 28th

A GIANT Remix station has arrived at Gunn Memorial Library!

Members of the Gunn Memorial community are invited to design and invent their own Holiday Trading Cards.

Families with children of all ages are invited to think like a designer and invent their own holiday, describe how it is celebrated, and why it's important. Your holidays will be published in a deck of cards AND a large "calendar" poster featuring all of the holidays!

Professionally printed cards will be shipped to the library for you to pick up within one month of your submission! You can also check out the full deck of cards and the published calendar poster at your library branch or online on the GIANT website - all completely free of charge.
