The Whatcom County Library System is looking for teen artists!
Submit your work to be considered for publication in Whatcomics 2025, their teen art book. The rules are simple: live in Whatcom County, be a 6th-12th grader, and submit your original artwork on or before October 31, 2025. We encourage all artistic styles including drawing, painting, collage, comics and doodles. Because of copyright issues, no fan art, art made copying someone else’s design, or art based on other artists’ work is allowed.
It’s easy to submit: upload your artwork on our website at wcls.org/whatcomics or drop off your work at any public library. Accepted artists receive a copy of the book to keep. Works will be on display at the Lynden Public Library in January 2026.
