WINNERS ANNOUNCED MAY 1
Kids Rug Design Contest
This March, we're celebrating Youth Art Month with our first ever Kids Rug Design Contest. We invite kids from K-5th grade to grab those pens, markers, paints, and crayons and design the rug of their dreams. Our Design Team will pick three winners from three age categories to receive a rug based on their original artwork.
Our contest has concluded and winners have been announced!
