Beyond Books — Annual Egg Tree Contest

Join us to celebrate our Annual Egg Tree Contest.

At this program we will provide paint and paintable “eggs” (Not real eggs). Kids are encouraged to decorate an egg and enter it in our Annual Egg Tree Contest. They do not have to turn these eggs in and are allowed to take them home. Paint appropriate clothes are encouraged.

Eggs are also available for pick up in our Children’s Department.

There are three categories that children can submit their eggs in: Most Artistic, Best Character (literary characters are encouraged but not required) and Scrambled (kids must be 4 and under to enter their egg in the scrambled category).

Eggs that are are turned in by Easter (April 9th) will be judged as part of the Egg Tree Contest.

The Egg Tree is located in Adult Services on our first floor. After the cut off date (Easter) we give all of our staff a few days to vote on their favorite eggs from each category and the winners are announced.

All events are free & open to the public.
