Key Colors Webinar Week
Welcome all to the Key Colors Webinar Week!
During this week you’ll have access to videos to get ready for the 2022 Key Colors Competition.
The two-yearly national contest for illustrators of children’s books is open to illustrators based in the United States and Canada.
Only a children’s book, intended for children from 2 to 7 years old, can qualify for the award.
A professional jury will judge the artistic, literary, and child-oriented qualities of the works.
