Here’s your chance to create an original work of art based on a book you have read.
Imagine that you have been chosen to design a book cover and could use any art medium at all (paint, crayons, markers, collage materials, etc).

All students in Kindergarten through Eighth Grade may participate and can pick up a piece of poster board in the library. Instructions are here: Instructions Book Cover Contest 2018-1k4d4zi

Upper School students may choose instead to participate in the Bookface Photo Contest. Students in Grades 5-8 will think of clever ways to incorporate the cover of a book with their faces or another body part so that it becomes part of the book cover’s image. Then a photo can be taken and e-mailed. Please see complete instructions here: US Bookface Photo Contest 2018-1712o9w

All entries must be received no later than Monday morning, October 22nd in order to be viewed by our panel of judges. Winners will receive gift certificates to spend at the East Woods Fall Book Fair, coming to our Library beginning on Parent-Teacher Conference Day, October 24th.
