The Ezra Jack Keats Bookmaking Competition is open to New York City teachers of students in grades 3–12. This annual project promotes the literary and artistic talents of students who design, write and assemble their own books. Students may not use any form of artificial intelligence to create or refine text or images. Student citywide winners receive a $600 cash prize, while borough winners receive $200. Educators who win citywide, borough or honorable mention prizes receive gift certificates to purchase art supplies for their classrooms. All students and educators receive certificates of commendation. Celebrations include an award ceremony and exhibition of the winning books at the Brooklyn Public Library. See the link below for a project handbook, tutorials, criteria and submission instructions.
