  • We are so proud of all the logo submissions that came in for the NJ SCBWI Logo Contest. Since we love you all so much, we couldn't judge this contest ourselves. (Or we'd end up with 52 logos–one for every day of the year.) We are excited that our judge, Sarah Hokanson, will reveal our new logo during the upcoming NJ SCBWI Conference on June 1-2, 2019. Sarah Hokanson is an associate art director for the trade imprints of Random House Children’s Books. She designs and art directs approximately thirty to forty picture books, board books, and chapter books a year. She attended Tyler School of Art / Temple University, where she earned a BFA in graphic design. Sarah has had the honor of working with many wonderful illustrators such as Julia Sarcone-Roach, Dan Yaccarino, Boris Kulikov, Harry Bliss, and Patrice Barton during her twenty-year career. Thank you Sarah, and thank you, illustrators. See everyone in June! Tisha, Rosanne, and Barbara SCBWI New Jersey Team NJ SCBWI
