Is it the shops? Is it the restaurants? Music in the Gazebo? The St. Patrick’s Day Parade?
Freehold has had a long storied history celebrated in song, literature, and film. Freehold Borough boasts historical homes and markers. Our town has changed and grown over the years. There are new homes, new residents and new businesses. The Freehold Borough Arts Council strives to foster and boost the art scene. A visitor can enjoy music, plays and paintings.
It’s been a hundred years since the Borough’s incorporation. To celebrate this milestone, the Freehold Borough Arts Council is sponsoring an essay contest.
An essay, according to dictionary.com is a short literary composition on a particular theme or subject. Essays consist of three parts: the introductory section, the body which supports and develops the concept and the concluding paragraph. There are varying forms of essays. The descriptive essay shows images in words. The reflexive essay is written to stir emotion. The expository essay presents facts.
The entry fee for the contest is $10.00 per essay
