Art Attack Challenge

Calling all tween & teen artists! Do you love making art? The Octavia Fellin Public Library (OFPL) is inviting youth artists to submit works of art in any physical medium to decorate the “Teen City” inside the Children’s Branch. Formerly known as, the young adult section.

Now is your chance to design a library space and stamp your mark in our library. OFPL is inviting youth artists from 9 to 19 years old to share original artworks for a two (2) year art exhibition. OFPL’s Resident Artist will work with youth artists to develop mood boards, facilitate immersive workshops, and provide resources to find your voice!

Submissions will be accepted from youth artists living within the Greater McKinley County region, including, McKinley, Sandoval, Cibola, San Juan, and Apache counties.
