State Design Winner Mclienry's Pioneer center was well represented among state winners in the national Association for Retarded Citizens (ARC) 1982 Art Design contest. State winners are submitted to the national association for final judging by a panel of professional artists. Winning entries will be produced as designs for the ARC Christmas cards and 1984 calendar. Michael Howden, of Woodstock, a client at the McHenry workshop, received the highest honor by winning the state's first prize for the ARC calendar. Other calendar winners announced by the Association for Retarded Citizens of Illinois were Oliver Wilson of Woodstock and Tom Sproull of McHenry. State Christmas card winners were Martin McNamara, Joyce Smith and Oliver Wilson, all of Woodstock. Artists whose designs appear in the ARC calendar, as well as those national winners of the Christmas card contest will each receive a United States Savings bond. Selection of winning entries is based upon originality, artistic quality and relationship to the subject. Art talent has been evident at Pioneer center for some time. Holiday cards designed by developmentally disabled persons at Pioneer center are once again available to the public. This year, the new Christmas card being offered by Pioneer center is the design of an ARC contest winner from Ohio. Cards may be purchased at the McHenry and Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce offices, all Pioneer center facilities or by calling Roberta Wiltse, director of development, at (815) 344-1230.
