Every month, Scarsdale Public Library's Teen Services Department collects via this Google Form images of original artworks created by local teens (i.e., those in Grades 6 through 12) to display on our Teen Room flatscreen.
Each teen artist may submit up to five pieces per month. The submission deadline for the following month's showcase is the 15th of the current month.
