Chiaha Harvest Fair

The National Creative Society is a local charitable organization committed to the encouragement of creativity in our young people. We are pleased to announce that we have the privilege of sponsoring the Children’s Art Tent at the 2010 Chiaha Harvest Fair.

We would like to extend an invitation to all teachers and educators in Rome and Floyd County to submit their students’ artwork for display at the Children’s Art Tent during the upcoming Chiaha Harvest Fair. All artwork submitted for display at the Coosa Valley Fair may also be displayed at the Chiaha Harvest Fair. Additionally, the Rome Forum Civic Center has agreed to display all award-winning art in the halls of the Forum after the Coosa Valley Fair and the Chiaha Harvest Fair have concluded. This will allow our artistic students even more opportunity to showcase their talents.

Setup for the Chiaha Harvest Fair will be on Friday, October 22 from 1:00 pm until 5:00 pm. Additionally, we will accept artwork on Saturday, October 23rd from 8:00 am until 10:00 am. A representative from the National Creative Society will be on hand to accept display items during both of these time periods as well as throughout the day. If you wish to place artwork on display but cannot deliver it, the National Creative Society will be happy to pick it up at your school on Friday, October 22, with prior arrangement.

If you have any questions or wish to arrange for pickup, please contact Raymond Atkins at 706-844-7314. You may also email him at raymondlatkins@aol.com.

Please visit the National Creative Society’s information booth in the Community Building during the fair to learn about our scholarship opportunities for 2011 as well as our many ongoing outreach programs. We are excited about the months to come and hope to partner with you in the important work of encouraging and nurturing creativity in our young people.
