Post 152: Historic Downtown Manassas Banners

Historic Downtown Manassas Banners

"The City of Manassas hangs banners on all the light poles in the historic downtown section. This year the banners will be directly from the work of artists. Each one different and unique.

The winning 70+ pieces of art work will be printed on individual street banners and on display in Historic Downtown Manassas, starting in the spring through to fall. Along with this, a walking brochure will be produced with a photo of each image, title, artist name and short paragraph description.

Art work will be judged and winners selected, but cash prizes will be awarded to the top three juried pieces."

Sandra Lewin's Banners

Sandra is a member of the Prince William Art Society and a past president of PWAS as well. Sandra has had all three of her entries juried into the Manassas Banner contest and now they are up on the lampposts. Two are on Church Street and one on Main Street. She enjoys seeing her art out in the open for everyone to see. They are usually left hanging until the holiday banners go up.




We need to take a little trip to Manassas and see the banners! AND while we are there, stop by the ARTfactory where the Prince William Art Society members have art on display for the next month too! Road trip!


Local Art: Visit us at Stonebridge Open Space Arts at 15000 Potomac Town Center, Woodbridge, VA - Open Wed to Sat 12-7 and Sun 12-5
