So how do you win?

We are asking children between the ages of 5 and 12 to get into the holiday spirit and create a festive piece of art that incorporates a Niagara USA landmark (Niagara Falls, Old Fort Niagara, Erie Canal, Niagara Wine Trail USA, Aquarium of Niagara or even the Holiday Market etc.) with a winter scene. Whether it's a drawing of Santa's sleigh flying above Niagara Falls, a painting of Old Fort Niagara's French Castle covered in holiday lights or even a Niagara USA inspired Christmas tree ornament, the contest will be judge based on creativity.

All entries must be submitted by Monday December 12 and the winners will be announced on Tuesday December 13 at 3 p.m. Please be sure to include your name, address, home telephone number and e-mail address. For participating schools, please include the students name and the best point of contact.

The winning entries along with a handful of others will be displayed on the Niagara USA Facebook, Twitter and www.niagara-usa.com
