Summer Reading Program 2022

CALLING ALL ARTISTS - AGES 3 TO 18!!

We're getting ready for our Summer Reading Program, which means it's time for the Hingham Public Library’s 14th summer art contest!

The Hingham Public Library invites children (ages 3 - 18) to create art reflecting our 2022 theme, READ BEYOND THE BEATEN PATH. All art forms are welcome — drawing, painting, 3-D, sculpture, etc. Use your imagination and have fun!

Please e-mail a digital copy of your artwork to hijuv@ocln.org. Artists are invited to bring their finished pieces to the library where they will be on display for the summer.

Two winners, drawn at random, will win a $25 gift card. Artwork submissions will be featured on the library website. Selected images will be included on our summer program materials and in our summer e-mails.

Deadline for submissions is Tuesday, May 31, 2022.

All submissions must be accompanied by a permission slip - available here.
