Teens Invited to Submit Ideas for Summer Reading Video
March is “Teen Tech Month” at Phoenix Public Library. A highlight of this first-ever observance is a video contest to promote the library’s summer reading program for teens.
Valley teens between 12 and 18 may enter by submitting a script and thumbnail sketches that illustrate the summer reading theme, “Read Your {?#@} Off.” The city’s youth and education channel, know99, will produce a one- to two-minute video based on the winning script and sketches.
The deadline for submissions is March 16. Entries can be delivered or mailed to any city library or Teen Central at Burton Barr Central Library, 1221 N. Central Ave., Phoenix, AZ 85004. The winning video will be shown on know99 and YouTube.
Meanwhile, special programs are planned at Phoenix libraries in conjunction with the month.
