2025 Local Author Showcase
Get ready for an exciting new format celebrating local literary talent! Local authors have an opportunity to present their work, connect with fellow writers, and engage directly with the public.
Let your imagination take you away with a Library Champion card! You’ll receive this collectable library card when you donate $100 or more to the Friends of the Library or Anchorage Library Foundation by December 31. Your card will be mailed in early 2025 and can be linked to your existing library account. The 2025 card design is by local artist Amanda Rose Warren.
Amanda Rose Warren is a local Alaskan artist whose vibrant acrylic and digital creations are inspired by the dramatic landscapes and wildlife of her home state. Known for her bold use of color and striking contrast, her work captures the charm and beauty of Alaska while evoking a sense of positivity.
