Online registration is now open for the annual Bradford House Museum poster contests, open to all middle and high school students (public, parochial, cyber and home-schooled) in Washington and Greene Counties.
The poster must be on a topic of Western Pennsylvania history, 1750 – 1850. Students are required to research and construct a presentation on a standard size trifold display board for delivery to the Bradford House in early March.
For complete rules, hints for developing a project, and a list of possible topics, go to www.bradfordhouse.org and look under 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, 2017. The symposium is co-sponsored by Washington & Jefferson College and is held in the Chapel in Old Main.
Cash prizes will be awarded to the top 5 entries in each division: middle school (grades 5-8) and high school (grades 9-12). A special prize will be awarded this year for the entry best representing women of Western Pennsylvania between 1750 and 1850. Prizes are generously sponsored by Betsy and Bill West, Northwood Realty Services.
