Lions Club announces winners for International Peace Poster contest

Kylia Shriver, a 7th grader at Margaret Bell Miller Middle School, has taken the first step to becoming an internationally recognized artist by winning a local competition sponsored by the Waynesburg Lions Club.
“Peace is something everyone can find,” the 13-year-old from Waynesburg said.
Her poster was selected for its originality, artistic merit and portrayal of the contest theme, “Journey of Peace.”
“(I) was impressed by the expression and creativity of the students,” said Waynesburg Lions Club President Ted Chapman. “Shriver’s poster has the opportunity to advance through the district, multiple district and international levels of competition if she is to be declared the international grand prize winner.”
Posters from all the students are on display in the First Federal Bank window until Oct. 25.
“Our club is cheering for Kylia as her poster advances in the competition, and we hope that her vision will ultimately be shared with others around the world,” said Lion Chair Mary Thompson.
