You probably saw this super cool logo on T-shirts, flyers, and just about everything.
But did you know that this logo was designed by a Nevada student?
In fact, more than 750 students from across the state took part in the Nevada Reading Week Art Contest to create this year's official logo, and the grand prize winner is from Eldorado High School.
-My name is Kaelynne Kindred, and I am a junior here at Eldorado High School.
What I like about drawing is that you can just basically create anything.
(Mandy Leytham) So Nevada Reading Week is a statewide celebration of the love and joy of reading.
So every year we have a new logo that matches the theme.
So this year is Color Our World With Books.
In the spring we do a big announcement, and then that leads into the student art contest.
(Jenny Buckley) Our librarian forwarded me information about the Nevada Reading Week contest, and I opened it up to National Art Honor Societies.
-I tried to make it as simple, because I didn't want too much, so it didn't look like the prompt.
But yeah, that's basically it.
I tried making it simple.
So I just made like literal books coloring the world like as little characters.
-We felt like her theme was just a very unique take as to having the books actually coloring the world.
And we thought that this theme would appeal not only to high school students, but to students in elementary school as well.
-And hers was kind of straight to the point, and it just showed something kid friendly as well.
I thought it was a perfect design.
-I was very surprised, because I was walking home and I didn't expect anything at all because I was doing it for fun.
And honestly, it was pretty worth it, because I got to see my art up in a website and all around Nevada, and people are supporting it.
-I think sometimes we focus on the importance of reading.
We forget that there's also a lot of joy that happens in reading, and I think that's what the art contest is truly about.
It's about the joy of reading and expressing that joy through many different ways.
-It's like, oh, my gosh, that's amazing for Eldorado.
We have a lot of talent here, and I just feel like they should be recognized more for that.
-She was really proud of me, and I'm proud of myself, yeah.
-You should be proud of yourself.
-I am very proud.
It's pretty fun seeing your own artworks.
-Kaelynn, I'm proud of you, too.
Nice job.
