West End Halloween Window Walk – It’s Spook-tacular!

One of last year's winning entries by the Lawson family.

Who doesn’t like to create a painting for the world to see...on the front of a local building? The answer is apparent as participation in the Annual West End Halloween Window Walk, presented by the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce and Beck Center for the Arts, continues to grow. This great community event, now in its seventh year, is a boo-tastic way for the community to share its creativity and talent up and down the west end of Detroit Avenue.

This year it’s time to include everyone in the fun – yes, everyone! Kids, of course, remain in the spotlight with several categories of participation from K-12, while groups and families get to create side-by-side. And this year we're excited to announce an 18-and-over category has been added. Creativity doesn’t stop after high school and Lakewood is filled with many creative spirits.

Take a moment to visit http://www.beckcenter.org/2011/09/19/halloween-window-walk for more information and to download a registration form. Simply submit it to the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce office at 16017 Detroit Ave. in Lakewood by October 10. You’ll receive information about your window’s location and painting will take place from October 23- 27.

Judging takes place on October 28 and prizes are awarded in each of seven categories. The awards ceremony and reception takes place on Saturday, October 29, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. at Beck Center for the Arts.
