People of all ages are invited to participate in the library’s 7th Annual Edible Book Festival. Anyone can enter by creating something edible that is somehow book-related. Think book titles, characters, plots, literary figures, puns on book titles, etc. For inspiration visit the library’s Pinterest “Edible Books” board at www.pinterest.com/kearneylib or do an online search for edible books. An online entry form is available on the library’s webpage at www.kearneylib.org. Participants will submit a photo of their creation with their entry form. Prizes will be awarded in four categories in each of four age divisions. Entry forms must be submitted by Wednesday, June 10. Even if you don’t submit an entry, you can still participate by viewing the entries online and voting for the People’s Choice award.
Entries will be posted on the following dates for public viewing and online voting:
- Wednesday, June 17 – Child (ages 5-8) Category Entries
- Wednesday, June 24 – Youth (ages 9-12) Category Entries
- Wednesday, July 1 – Teen (ages 13-17) Category Entries
