The Bel Air Independence Day Committee is once again seeking a young artist to design the cover of their 2017 Fourth of July program.
The theme for this year’s festivities is: “One From Many – Celebrating the Creation of the United States!” The committee invites all artists between the ages of 5 and 14 to get their creativity flowing and creates a design that reflects this theme.

- Include a 1/2-inch white border within the above measurements.

The winning artist will receive a cash award, and have their photo and bio included in the program. Also, the winning artist and their family will be given VIP seating at the parade reviewing stand!
