Create & Celebrate:

Bookmark Showcase

The Bookmark Showcase is back, and we can’t wait to see your creativity on display! This annual event invites artists of all ages to design their own bookmarks, with the top picks in each category featured as our shop’s signature bookmarks.

From bold colors to intricate sketches, every design tells a story—and we want to share yours.

How It Works

  1. Submit Your Design
    Design a rectangular bookmark and drop it off at the shop, mail it, email it, or create one in-store.
    Deadline: April 24th

  2. Vote for Your Favorites
    Visit Curious Squirrel Bookshop between April 26 - May 3 to cast your vote.

  3. See Your Art Featured
    Winning bookmarks will be printed, displayed in the shop, and handed out to visitors all year long.

Categories by Grade

Pre-K/K | 1-2 | 3-4 | 5-6 | 7-8 | 9-12

We’ll showcase bookmarks from each grade category to celebrate creativity at every level.
