Egg Display at the Atlantic Public Library
The Atlantic Public Library will host the Iowa Egg Council’s 2009 White House Easter Egg display throughout the month of November. The exhibition can be viewed until Fri., Nov. 28, and it will then be on display in Norwalk for the month of December.
The 19 beautifully decorated eggs in this display are the creations of various Iowa artists. The eggs were entered in the 2009 White House Easter Egg Decorating Contest, held during the 2008 Iowa State Fair. This contest invites Iowa artists to decorate an egg to depict a special feature, theme, icon, or location in/of Iowa. The winning egg is then sent to Washington, D.C. to be on display at the White House during the Easter season.
At this year’s contest, Marjorie Nedjl of Ely won first place, winning a cash prize plus traveling expenses to see her decorated egg displayed at the White House next spring. Second place went to Carolyn Klein of Norwalk, and Marion Smith of Eagle Grove won third place.
