The entry fee is $50 with all funds raised benefitting Center Place and its arts programming. All cards must be picked up between Friday, January 3, 2020 and Monday, January 6, 2020.

Lisa Rodriguez, marketing director for Center Place, said, “This is a wonderful event for businesses to participate in and help the community celebrate the holidays. Making your card can be a team building experience. You get to create your own special message for the community. Where else can you get such fantastic, upbeat advertising for an entire month at the low cost of $50? You get to place your giant Christmas card where everyone drives by and sees it. This shows true community involvement and brings holiday spirit to Brandon.”

Rodriguez added, “Center Place is dressing up the community for the holidays with an array of giant holiday cards. Load up the car and bring the whole family to Center Place to see these giant, beautiful cards.”
