Spoleto Window Display Contest

We invite all businesses within the City of Charleston to celebrate Spoleto Festival USA and our country's 250th anniversary by decorating your store front, and helping us paint the town red, white and blue. Spoleto aims to create synergy between the performing arts festival and small business throughout the Holy City. This collective spirit will drive visiting traffic to participating businesses and bring local awareness to the festival itself. We hope that together we can create momentum behind the ecomonic success that Charleston continues to show every festival season and rejoice in our city's prominant role in the founding of this country.

All participating businesses will recieve two tickets to a show of Spoleto's choice, while our 'First Place' or best overall display winner will receive two tickets to any sold out show of their choice!

On glass decals listing Spoleto festival dates and a QR code to their website, as well as a festival poster will be provided to any participating business.

Parameters of judging will be based on: Originality / Americana Theme / Use of Space / Craftsmanship.
