The Lassen County Fair is looking for creative kids, clubs, classrooms, and youth groups to help brighten up the fairgrounds this summer! The annual “Paint the Fair” contest is officially underway, and it’s the perfect opportunity for local youth to showcase their artistic talents.
This year’s theme, “Celebrating America: 250 Years of Red, White & You,” offers endless inspiration for participants to show off their community pride and unique group personality.
How to Participate
Stop by the Lassen County Fairgrounds office to pick up a blank wooden star for your group and then decorate the star however you would like! You can paint it, cover it in glitter, collage it with photos or use any craft supplies that represent your group’s unique spirit.
Return your finished masterpiece to the fairgrounds by Monday, June 15th.
All decorated stars will be featured in a special community display throughout the run of the 2026 Lassen County Fair, celebrating the creativity and connection of our local youth.
For more information or to pick up your star, visit the Lassen County Fairgrounds office, 195 Russell Avenue, or call 1.530.251.8900.
