IDW Publishing is hosting a nationwide coloring contest, promoting two educational coloring books from the Smithsonian Institution -- and the lucky winners will get a copy of each.
To qualify for a chance at winning IDW's upcoming coloring books, entrants must download a page from Airplanes: A Smithsonian Coloring Book or Dinosaurs: A Smithsonian Coloring Book, color it, and post their work on social media, tagging @IDWPublishing on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook, said IDW Publishing's contest announcement.
The contest, which is open only to U.S. residents, launches on Nov. 24. All entries must be in by Dec. 15. IDW Publishing will choose a winner for each page, contact them on Dec. 16. and will present the winners on its social media channels.
Airplanes: A Smithsonian Coloring Book was developed by experts from the National Air and Space Museum and illustrated by John Pirtel. The book will feature several aircrafts from the museum's collection, including 1903's Wright Flyer, the Concorde, the Lockheed Vega 5-B, the McDonnell F-S Phantom II, the Northrop Gamma Polar Star and more.
Dinosaurs: A Smithsonian Coloring Book is illustrated by Rachel Curtis and is written with the help of experts from the National Museum of Natural History. It features dinosaurs such as Camarasaurus, Hesperornis, Stegosaurus, Tyrannosaurus and others. Both books are licensed by the Smithsonian Institution, which is not a host of the contest.
Airplanes: A Smithsonian Coloring Book is on sale now, and Dinosaurs: A Smithsonian Coloring Book goes on sale Dec. 15.
