Art Shows in the Library
The San Juan Island Public Library is starting to decorate its walls with Citizen Art. This means that on the designated days anyone, amateur, beginner, professional and talented children can bring in art in keeping with the theme for that time period. Our job is to hang it up for all to see and enjoy until the next pick up-drop off date.
This way the whole community can enjoy a changing panorama of art at the library. We encourage everyone to participate.
Compared the the wall spaces available years ago, today's remodeled library has smaller walls. Thus, we don't have space for very many large works of art. On your next trip in to the library, look around and see if you have created art that the rest of us can enjoy.
Please pick up your pieces on the morning of show changes. Questions? Call Diane at 370-5814 |
