Fairfield Heritage card celebrates ‘Christmas Magic in Alley Park’

Popular local artist Barbara “Bobbi” Roberts McKinnon painted “Christmas Magic in Alley Park” for the Fairfield County Heritage Association’s 2021 holiday card. The scene is taken from “Santa in the Park,” a family event hosted by Lancaster Parks & Recreation that has become a beloved holiday tradition. Fairfield Heritage’s cards and prints have become a tradition, too. Each year a different artist portrays a well-remembered holiday scene. Cards and prints are made and sold in the gift shops of the Sherman House Museum and the Georgian Museum as well as in the Heritage booth at the Fairfield County Fair. Bobbi McKinnon teaches art at Fairfield Union Local Schools in Lancaster, Ohio. She earned a bachelor’s degree in Art & Design from Ashland University and The Art Institute of Pittsburgh as well as a master’s degree in education from Ashland University. “I enjoy teaching and freelance commission painting,” she says. “Capturing the ‘Moment in Time’ that is meaningful to the viewer is an important part of my passion for art.” Learn more about her work at www.bobbiscanvas.com. Bobbi McKinnon holds the painting she created for the Fairfield County Heritage Association’s annual Christmas card.
