Join us for a Community Art Reception! And we mean that literally since all of the artwork on display was created by the community! 

In mid-August, we distributed dozens of TINY ART KITS to patrons, including 5" x 5" canvases, paints, brushes, etc! And now that all of our talented patrons have created and returned their min-masterpieces, we're ready to celebrate them with a special exhibition!

Join us on Sunday, September 28, between 2pm-4pm to see everyone's TINY ART! There will be live music, refreshments, and likely several chances to meet the artists

No registration required!



The Art and Exhibitions Committee’s mission is to promote and foster an appreciation of two and three-dimensional art for library patrons, through exhibits, lectures, and an expanded collection of art books.
