Halloween Window Painting
The Palisades Halloween Window Painting Contest
is organized and judged by the Junior Women's Club volunteers. The colorful windows raise the spirits of all who pass by during the two weeks before Halloween when they are displayed. Groups of children
in the community join together in creating their own
designs, based upon a specific yearly theme, on a designated store
window in the Palisades business district, along Swarthmore and Antioch streets.
The winning teams are featured in the Palisades Post and
awarded prizes.* Teams are organized by age group, and include scout troops, groups of neighborhood friends, church or synagogue youth groups, and more.
*Prizes are awarded by age group and based on four criteria: originality, artistic ability, neatness and representation of the theme.
