At Springhill Medical Center, springtime peaks with the Color By Kids Art Competition. Springhill Medical Center and the SMH Auxiliary honor the winners during our 27th year for the Mobile art competition. The Eastern Shore's art competition is in its fourth year. The 22 winners from both Mobile and Baldwin county schools are divided among three categories from kindergarten through grade 12.

Color By Kids winners receive a certificate, a gift card, and a check for their individual schools to support their art programs. First place winners also receive plaques for their schools' trophy displays.

The Color By Kids Art Competition serves multiple purposes. It promotes children's art in Mobile and the Eastern Shore, encourages young artists, and supports the hospital's mission to be the best community-centered health care provider in the area.

Winning artwork has been professionally framed and is on exhibit at various locations throughout Mobile and the Eastern Shore.
