Bradford House holding poster contest
The Bradford House Museum is sponsoring poster contests for all middle and high school students in Washington and Greene counties, including public, parochial, cyber and homeschooled, in Washington and Greene counties on “Western Pennsylvania History, 1750-1850.”
Students must construct a presentation on a standard-size trifold display board, register online in January and February and deliver the project to the Bradford House in early March.
For complete rules, hints for developing a project and a list of possible topics, visit www.bradfordhouse.org and click on the education tab.
Winning projects will be displayed at the Symposium on 18th-Century Life and Customs in Western Pennsylvania, “Remember the Ladies – An Evening with Abigail Adams,” on March 31.
Cash prizes will be awarded to the top five entries in fifth through eighth grade and ninth through 12th grade. A special prize will be awarded for the entry that best represents women of Western Pennsylvania between 1750 and 1850.
