LACA & Community

Blissful Creations created this cardinal hurricane lampAlthough the Lebanon Art and Crafts Association is an art related organization, LACA has a long tradition of being actively involved in the community in ways that extend beyond the world of art. Each year LACA members pool their talent, time, and money to reach out to others in the Upper Valley.

Area High School Students

On other towns, this award is known as the Lebanon Art and Crafts Association Award.

This application must be returned to LACA by May 1, 2008 to be considered eligible for 2008 awards.
