Library Card Art Contest

Your Art. Your Library. Your Card. 

Each year, our community has the opportunity to help shape one of the most recognizable parts of the library, its library card.

The Library Card Art Contest returned for its second year, inviting community members of all ages to create original artwork that could become an official Laramie County Library System library card.
