Youth Art Month
Calling all young artists through 6th grade! March is youth art
month. To celebrate, we would like to display your artwork in the
library. Just bring an original drawing, painting, or sculpture to
the Main Library and we’ll display it. We’ll show your artwork
throughout the entire month so the sooner we receive it, the
longer it’ll be on display. At the end of the month you may
pick up your artwork. You’ll also receive a certificate for your
participation!
Tuesdays are Snooze Days!
