Fresh New Kicks Contest

Each winter, children and teens in grades 3-12 are invited to create their own shoe designs and submit them to the Library’s Fresh New Kicks competition for a chance to win a gift card toward their own pair of kicks. Youth can choose a blank shoe template to draw and color in their own unique designs.

Submissions are accepted January 7 – February 4, and winners will be announced on our website in March 2025. A winner and two runner-ups will be selected from each age group: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, and Grades 9-12. Questions about the contest may be sent to Haylee Lau, Youth Programming Specialist, at h.lau@sjcpl.org.
