Are you a writer, photographer, artist, or poet living in Tuscarawas County?
Submit your work for publication in the Dover Public Library’s literary magazine, Tapestries of Tuscarawas County to share your work with the community and help us preserve the culture of the county as part of the Library’s historical initiative.
The magazine is open to submissions from anyone in the county of stories, art and photography, capturing what it is like to live in this community. Citizens are asked to send in their memories of life in Tuscarawas County with the chance of winning a cash prize. The library is offering one first-place $100 prize and one second-place $50 prize to the two most appealing stories or art. The deadline to make submissions is April 19.
As a part of the Dover Public Library’s oral and living-history project, Tapestries intends to weave together the stories of Tuscarawas County into one tapestry that conveys the beauty of the county.
A release ceremony will be held at the library to celebrate the magazine, and contributors will be given a free copy of the book as well as an opportunity to read excerpts from their work. Copies will be available to the public at the Dover Public Library and other local libraries and historical societies.
