Spring coloring contest: Hop to it, young artists

Fri., March 13, 2020

We’re on the hunt for fresh art, so break out your supplies and decorate an egg for The Spokesman-Review’s spring coloring contest.

The contest is open to children ages 12 and younger. Entries will be judged by a panel of Spokesman-Review staffers who will choose winners in three divisions: ages 4 and younger, ages 5 to 7 and ages 8 to 12.

Winners will receive a gift certificate to Mobius, good for admission to either the Children’s Museum or Science Center, and their entries will be printed in the newspaper on April 11. As many entries as possible will be displayed at Mobius Kids in the lower level of River Park Square.

TO ENTER: Mail your entry to The Spokesman-Review Coloring Contest, P.O. Box 2160, Spokane, WA 99210, or deliver them to the S-R office at 999 W. Riverside Ave. Entries must be received no later than 5 p.m. April 6 and cannot be returned. Be sure to attach a separate piece of paper that includes your name, address and telephone number so we can contact you if you win. Photocopies of the form are acceptable, and a copy of the form can be downloaded at spokesman.com/coloring-contest.
