As an alternative to trick-or-treating this Halloween season, the City of Medford is offering a variety of low-risk activities, including a Draw-lloween Artwork Contest. Creations will be distributed to local businesses to hang in their windows, and the top five selected drawings will be displayed at City Hall throughout November. Gift cards will be awarded to the top three entrants.

The deadline to enter is Thursday, October 22. Email a photo of your artwork to Lisa Colaianni at lcolaianni@medford-ma.gov.
