DOTHAN, Ala. (WDNews) – The Dothan Houston County Library System (DHCLS) is inviting young artists to showcase their creativity in a special contest that could put their artwork in the hands of children across the Wiregrass.
Running now through Friday, August 29, 2025, the Youth Library Card Art Contest is open to all DHCLS cardholders ages 0 to 18. The winning design will be featured on the library system’s new children’s library card.
This year’s theme is “I ♥ My Library!” Contest entry forms are available at all DHCLS locations, and original artwork may be submitted either in person or online. All entries must be received by 6 p.m. on August 29.
Library officials say the contest is a way to encourage youth engagement with their local libraries while celebrating artistic talent in the community.
