(K-12th Grade) The Homewood Public Library seeks to encourage and recognize the artistic talents of local Jefferson County students. Students may submit one original work of art produced within the last 12 months. Pieces must be exhibition ready and weigh less than 50lbs. Artwork should be dropped off in the Children's Department by Saturday, September 30, with an entry form attached to the back of the work. Artwork will be judged by a panel of local artists with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners selected for various grade categories (K-2nd, 3rd-5th, 6th-8th, and 9th,12th). Due to limited space, not all artwork will be selected for display. Accepted entries will be displayed in Homewood Library's Ellenburg Art Gallery during the month of October. Entry forms can be downloaded at hpl.pub/artcontest. For more information, please contact Cristina Castor at [email protected] or Cat Sandler at [email protected].
