VEGAS PBS KIDS Writers Contest Now Accepting Entries
VEGAS PBS KIDS Writers Contest Now Accepting Entries

Entries are now being accepted for the VEGAS PBS KIDS Writers Contest Presented by Janice Allen.

The VEGAS PBS KIDS Writers Contest is designed to promote the advancement of children’s literacy skills through hands-on learning. The contest—made possible by local financial support from Janice Allen—empowers participants to celebrate creativity and build literacy skills while writing and illustrating their very own stories.

“The Writers Contest is a powerful way for kids to learn using their innate sense of imagination and creativity. We are excited to showcase the creative work of Southern Nevada’s youth again this year,” said Jessica Russell, Vegas PBS Ready To Learn Coordinator. 

How the Contest Works
Southern Nevada students in grades K-5 can submit entries to the VEGAS PBS KIDS Writers Contest by Friday, April 8, 2022, at 5 p.m. All entries must be accompanied by an official entry form signed by a parent or guardian.

Stories can be mailed to Jessica Russell at Vegas PBS at 3050 E. Flamingo Road, Las Vegas, NV 89121, or emailed to jrussell@vegaspbs.org
