For each age group in the three areas: North Cambs., Huntindonshire and South Cambs, the judging panel selects thirty entries. These are exhibited as a travelling exhibition visiting three libraries for two weeks across each area. Age specific area exhibitions take place at half termly intervals.
At each library exhibition, the general public vote for their favorite art works. The three art works that gain most votes from the each age specific area exhibition will progress to round three (i.e. nine in total for each age group).
