The Livingston Diversity Council, in partnership with the Howell Carnegie Library and Huron-Clinton Metroparks, is having an Art and Writing Contest for area youth. Students in grades 3-12 who reside within the Howell Public Schools District can create a written or artistic work in response to the prompt: MLK’s Dream. Students must submit their creations to the Howell Carnegie Library during regular business hours, between 9 am December 12, 2022, and 7 pm on January 3, 2023. A three-person panel will judge the works based on visual appearance, content, and quality. The winners will receive a $100 Visa gift card and be notified on January 9, 2023. Winners will read or share their creations at the reception hosted by the Howell Carnegie Library as part of our MLK 101 Series immediately before the original one-man show: King Crusader and the Missing Michael.
