“The Find Rosie the Rose City Reindeer program was designed to bring customers into our downtown business district while promoting our ‘Shop Local’ message,” said Chamber executive director Karen Giambra. “The program reinforces our shared sense of community and it’s a fun way to bring everyone together during the holiday season. It has been tremendously successful.”
Holiday Window Painting
Each year the Madison High School art students partner with Madison Area Chamber of Commerce businesses to help brighten the downtown business district with their holiday artwork. Students will paint storefront windows and doors and help make Madison more festive this holiday season. All artwork will be complete by the Annual Christmas walk on November 29.
The students will earn service hours through Madison High School for their volunteer work and are each presented a certificate of achievement by the chamber.
“This annual program is a fun, positive, community oriented project that we are very excited to be able to offer our businesses,” said the Chamber’s executive director, Karen Giambra. “We look forward to working with the students each year and we all thoroughly enjoy the talent and festivity that their artwork brings to our downtown.”
