Get creative for Keiki Kalikimaka contest

Hey, kids! It’s time to break out the art supplies to help us trim our pages with your holiday creations.

Color, paint or sketch an ornament for the annual Star-Advertiser Keiki Kalikimaka contest and you could win a prize of $150, $100 or $50 cash.

The contest is open to ages 12 and younger.

IMPORTANT: Due to the pandemic, we’re doing something a little different this year: All entries must be hand-drawn (no computer art), scanned (at least 200 DPI resolution, JPG or PDF format) and emailed to features@staradvertiser.com. If you are unable to scan your art, take a high-quality, well-lit photo taken straight-on and showing all edges of the piece and email it (at least 1 MB file size in JPG format). Put “Keiki Kalikimaka” in subject field. No mailed-in or faxed entries accepted.

Each day starting Nov. 30, we will select a finalist to be printed on the front page of the newspaper. On Dec. 20 we’ll run all finalists and announce the randomly selected winners.

One entry per child. Children of Oahu Publications employees are ineligible. Judges’ decisions are final. All entries may be printed in the paper and online without compensation to the entrant.

The last day to enter is Dec. 4.

Along with your attached ornament, be sure to include in the email the child’s name and a parent’s name, age, school, teacher’s name and a parent’s phone number.
