Calling artists of all ages! Enter the Mid North Coast Libraries Bookmark Competition and get your artwork featured on free bookmarks in the libraries throughout 2024!
There are 2 ways you can enter:
- Download and print out our handy dandy design template (or pickup a copy at your local library) then return your completed design to the library front desk; or
- Submit up to three digital artworks via the form below. Artworks should be saved in image (.jpg, .jpeg, .png, .tiff, .gif) or pdf format and be no larger than 5cm * 20cm (width * height).
All ages may enter and winners from each age group will be notified by phone call.
The theme for artworks is: “What summer means to me”.
Create beautiful art that expresses your interpretation of summer, and if you are one of our lucky winners, your artwork will be printed and available at Mid North Coast Libraries over the next year.
Entries open from: 1 November 2023 – 29 February 2024
