Announcing the Winners of the 2020 Halloween Window Painting Contest

The Grand Prize went to Alexandra and Leo SimonYoung painters continued a Scarsdale tradition on Sunday October 18, painting the town orange in the annual Halloween Window Painting Contest. Painters from elementary to high school created colorful, comic and intriguing work on the windows of Scarsdale retailers. If you haven't done so already, get out and take a walk to see their work before the rain takes it down.  The contest was orchestrated by Dan Walczewski at the Scarsdale Recreation Department. Congratulations to all the participants on a wonderful gallery of work.

According to Walczewki, about 330 windows were painted. With teams and family entries he estimates that just over 900 people participated in the event. There were more entries this year that last, especially in the Family category.  The judges are a group of seven volunteers who all are either current or former Scarsdale residents or village employees.
