You can start 2023 by exploring new things and honing your skills at the library.
Express your creativity with a submission to our art show. Try out a family book discussion. Check out video magic using a green screen. Tackle your unfinished crafts with the encouragement of other pro-craft-inators.
And that’s just the start!
Check out all of these:
Community Art Show Submissions
Reconnecting is the theme of the 2023 art show. To participate, pick up a blank postcard at your local library, and then paint and/or decorate it. Return your finished art and artist information card to the library, and it will be displayed during the Community Art Show, February 6–28.
