The Golden Feather Hunt opens on 3 March 2026 until 8th May 2026!
We are so excited to announce that the Golden Feather Hunt is returning next year. Get ready for nine weeks of feathered fun from 3 March - 8 May 2026. All public libraries are welcome to join the hunt!
Head into your local library and check out a book to see if you find a feather-shaped paper bookmark between the pages. There are four different kinds of feathers to find, all with a different prize to be won!
🪶 The Plain Feather
Decorate your feather however you like. Ask an adult to post a photo of it online, tagging @scribblersfest, to go into the weekly prize draw to win a book from the Scribblers bookshelf.
🪶The Emerald Feather
There’s one to find in every participating library! Finding it will win you an instant book prize. Simply show your feather find to the librarian.
🪶 The Silver Feather
Only 20 libraries across WA have a silver feather! This means 20 lucky finders will win a signed book from the Scribblers shelves.
🪶 The Golden Feather
This is the rarest feather of them all, with only five in circulation. Finding the Golden Feather wins you a Scribblers book pack, an e-reader, and a 6-month Book Subscription to Paper Bird!
Contact your local library today to find out if they are participating in the Golden Feather Hunt.
The Golden Feathers were found in The City of Perth Library by Max and Adele, Lakelands Library by Josiah, Nannup Library by Elsie
and in the Dalwallinu Library by Joshua.
These lucky feather hunters were awarded their amazing prizes including an iPad, signed book pack and entry to workshops of their choice during the
Scribblers Festival Free Family Weekend.
Make sure you visit back to find out when the 2023 Golden Feather Hunt begins.
