LOTR Art Contest for Kids in Ohio - maegwen @ 17:26 PST
Ringer Spy Melissa writes: I'm a movie theatre manager in Ohio sending this along. Not only will there be the Return of the King play going on in Cincinnati, and the reading marathon in Cleveland, but Columbus (aside from getting Howard Shore to visit in March) will have a couple of big events taking place. Read on!

Central Ohio Art Academy: Fine Art and Computer Graphics for the Gifted

This school is going to have a Lord of the Rings art exhibit, with the pieces made by the kids at the school. John Howe will be judging the pieces via the internet, Peter Jackson also is aware of the event as well and has sent along his support of it. The show starts October 31st in honor of Peter Jackson's birthday. It ends in December, but it is also going to be featured at Marcus Cinema in Pickerington, Ohio on December 20th to celebrate the opening of Return of the King. This is one of the first times that an art exhibit done by very talented young people will be judged on the internet...it's a little hard to get John Howe out of Switzerland unless you are say....Peter Jackson.

Just thought I would let you know!
