Help us celebrate all things Bedford.
We are asking people to sketch or paint their favourite Bedford scene for an exhibition in Bedford Central Library on Saturday 29th October.
You don't have to be the next Picasso or Monet - just have fun illustrating what you love about Bedford.

How we see Bedford - its people and places - will be the theme of this year's Bedford Together Day as we celebrate the achievements and the commitment of individuals and organisations in creating the vibrant community life of our Borough. Why not spend some time in the coming weeks to sketch or paint your favourite Bedford scenes, buildings, monuments and people?
Submit your artwork along with the application form below to a Bedford Borough Library.
The closing date for entries is Saturday 15th October.
All contributions will be exhibited in the Library Meeting Room on Saturday 29th October.
During Bedford Together day, visitors will be encouraged to sketch an outline of one of the scenes; or personalise a ready-prepared scene by colouring it in.

Our hope is that the sketches can be combined and eventually published as The Bedford Colouring Book. To get in touch to find out more about taking part in the exhibition; the Sketching Bedford activity and for the timings of different events, call Bedford Central Library on 01234 718178 or e-mail us at bedfordshire.libaries@bedford.gov.uk.

Bedford Together celebrates the vibrant ethnic mix of the people of Bedford and their eclectic approach to culture and communication
