Wait, what's a Peeps® diorama?
The Mad River Libraries invite individuals and teams of all ages -- yes, it's equally fun for adults -- to submit book-themed dioramas using marshmallow Peeps® as the characters. Dioramas are constructed in a shoebox or similar-sized box and depict a scene from a book or have a literary theme. If you'd like inspiration or just want to brighten your day, check out this slideshow from the 2021 competition (somehow we failed to put one together for 2022): https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1IHn21AKc7LPbSAkev26G5aqG55IABns-IfPInJdZtrQ/edit?usp=sharing
Submit your dioramas at any Mad River Library between March 25-April 1. Full rules and entry form can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WPM_CwNXReBKaxea75c3n950T2PL6XStVsaUOqfV1as/edit?usp=sharing
Public viewing and voting will take place at the libraries from April 3 -April 15. Visit all three libraries and vote for your favorite diorama at each one!
So, what's the Peeps® diorama maker day at the Warren Library?
Come to the library on Saturday, March 25, to get inspiration and materials for your Peeps® diorama. We'll have paint, hot glue, shoeboxes, and many other materials available (yes, including Peeps®). Stay and work on your project or just pick up some materials to take home. You don't need to come to the maker day to participate in the competition.
