Help Shape the Future of CSLP Artwork!
CSLP is seeking volunteer applicants to serve on our Artwork Committee<https://www.cslpreads.org/committees/>, one of the most impactful committees within the organization. Committee members play a vital role in helping guide the visual direction of future CSLP themes and ensuring artwork is inclusive, engaging, and relevant for the many different communities our member libraries serve.
Do you have an eye for art and design, and previous summer reading experience? Are you passionate about helping create artwork that resonates with libraries of all sizes and locales?
Each year, CSLP's artwork becomes the face of summer reading in libraries across 40 states and territories. From posters and promotional materials to the artwork that inspires our products and marketing campaigns, Artwork Committee members help ensure our visual identity reflects the needs and values of our diverse membership.

This two-year commitment involves monthly meetings and 2-4 hours of work each month conducted through virtual meetings and Basecamp project management platform.
Responsibilities include:

  *   Recommending artists for the 2028 and 2029 themes
