The Tea Tax
debates and the Boston Tea Party are some of the most well-known events in
American history. But what would it have looked like to be there?
2008 Art Contest Winner Nensi Gjata’s
A Fiery Debate
Old South Meeting House and
Salada Tea®
are pleased to announce the second annual contest exploring the Boston Tea Party.
Students in
grades 3-5 are asked to recreate an image from that fateful night—the fiery
debate in the hall of Old South, the march of the Mohawks down to the harbor, or
the dumping of the tea at Griffin’s
Wharf. We will accept any artistic media and encourage creativity. However, the
artwork must express your student’s clear understanding of the historic events
and their significance.
This is a wonderful opportunity for your students’ artwork to
be displayed in the historic hall of Old South Meeting House. The winning
student and their family will also win a number of great prizes, including
tickets to the 236th Anniversary Boston Tea Party Annual Reenactment.
Your student’s school also wins!
The 1st
prize-winning student’s class will win a one-hour “Tea is Brewing” program for
their class. And, their school will receive a generous prize of black, green,
and white teas from Salada Tea®,
the Official Tea of the 236th Anniversary Boston Tea Party Annual
Reenactment.
Please see the official
contest rules and requirements.
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30.
