Friends Annual Bookmark Design Contest
Post-it note? Your napping kitty’s tail? Folded corner (gasp!)? None of those are nearly as cool as having a bookmark with your very own artwork on it. From preschoolers to adults, there are seven different age categories – each with two winners!
Submissions for the Friends Annual Bookmark Design Contest honoring National Friends of Libraries Week are now closed! Stay tuned for our announcement of the winners!
