Peeps Diorama Contest

For the last seven years, Mt. Lebanon Library’s Children’s Department has challenged kids and families to create a book-themed diorama using marshmallow Peeps®. We are excited to continue the tradition for its eighth year! So let your imagination run wild and see what you can create with those fluffy, sugary bundles of gooey goodness.

Diorama drop-off period opens March 20 and closes March 26.

Here’s what to do: Just create your diorama (a shoebox works as a wonderful staging area), print and complete the below submission form, and bring both to the Children’s Library between March 20 - March 26!
