CHESTER COUNTY, PA — The Chester County Library System (CCLS) invites students entering grades 6 through 12 to showcase their creativity in the 2nd Annual Teen Photo Contest with the inspiring theme “Color Our World.” This summer, teens are encouraged to explore their surroundings and capture vibrant, original digital photographs that celebrate color in all its forms.
The contest welcomes submissions from Chester County residents or students attending school within the county. Participants may enter up to two photos, one per category:
Category 1: Traditional Photo – For images that are either unedited or minimally enhanced (e.g., cropping, color balance adjustments, black & white).
Category 2: Anything Goes – For photos digitally enhanced or creatively manipulated using software, drawing tools, or collage techniques.
Submission Guidelines:
- One photo per category per participant.
- Entries accepted online through July 31, 2025, at 8 pm.
- All entrants and their families are invited to an art reception at the Chester County Library on August 10, 2025, where accepted photos will be displayed and winners announced. Winning photos will be featured in the library lobby from August 15 through August 30, 2025.
