(Hamilton, NY – Feb. 2016) We hope you’ll join us on Thursday Feb. 11 at 10:30 a.m. for a special reception honoring our area’s exceptional artists.
The Exceptional Art Exhibit will be on display at the Library through March 11. Many thanks to our friends from the following organizations for arranging this wonderful opportunity: Heritage Farm, The Oneida-Lewis Chapter of ARC, Madison-Cortland ARC, Central New York DSO, ARISE, Herkimer Area Resource Center, and the Resource Center for Independent Living.
Refreshments will be provided by the Friends of the Library.
Are you looking for a way to share your creative talents? The Library is looking forward to hosting a Community Art Show again this spring. We encourage community members to select one of their favorite original artworks to showcase. Participants are also invited to submit a one-page description of their artwork or a brief biography for inclusion in our exhibition catalog. All artwork and artist information should be brought to the Library during our regular hours between Monday Feb. 29 and Saturday March 12. Entry forms will be available at the circulation desk that week and should accompany all artwork. The “Community Art Exhibit” will be displayed on display from March 21 through April 29 this year.
