The City of Paducah 2015 Christmas cards are available for purchase at City Hall.  

The Christmas cards are $7 for a package of ten.  The cards can be purchased, while supplies last, at the Finance Department on the first floor of City Hall at 300 South 5th Street between 8 am and 4:30 pm Monday through Friday.  The price of the cards covers the printing charges.  The City does not profit from the sale of the Christmas cards.   

About a year ago, the Paducah Area Painters Alliance (PAPA) selected the Greenway Trail as the theme and asked artists to submit their entries.  Ten works of art were submitted to be voted on by the Paducah Board of Commissioners.  All of the entries are on display through the end of the year on the second floor of City Hall.  Please stop by City Hall to see all of the entries.   

“Santa and Friends Checking the Trail”, a pastel by Dutch Thurman, was selected as this year’s City of Paducah Christmas card.  The pastel shows Santa riding a bicycle on the Greenway Trail with an elf peeking around the corner of the welcome sign.  The pastel also shows a couple walking their dog. The inside of the card reads “Wishing you all the joys of this Christmas season and a prosperous new year.”   

Dutch Thurman began painting in 1990 and taking classes at Paducah Community College.  Thurman has won awards in the Woman's Club Art Show and the Mayfield/Graves County Impressions Show.  Thurman works with oils and pastels with portraits, still lifes, and scenes from around Paducah as her favorite subjects.  This is the second year in a row for Thurman’s work to be selected as the City Christmas Card.
