Edible Book Festival Registration (Youth, Teen, Adult)
Full Description
Celebrate two of the best things in the world: books and food! What is an edible book you ask? Well, in its simplest equation: SOMETHING EDIBLE + BOOK RELATED = EDIBLE BOOK. We hope you'll take part in our 9th Annual Festival — one of our library's most beloved events. Get creative and start planning your entry today! For inspiration, check out our Pinterest "Edible Book" board or search online. There are four age categories: 5–8, 9–12, 13–18, and 19+. Registration is required by Monday, June 20 at 8 am.
Not interested in entering? Please participate by coming to see all the amazing entries and voting for the "People's Choice" awards on June 22 from 1:30–2:00 pm. Winners will be announced at 2:00 pm.
