Event Details
Drop by the Create and Learn Center in the Library to take a little time out of your day for some peaceful time coloring, doodling, and creating. The Library will provide art supplies to spark your creativity!
These open crafting sessions are our way to invite the adults in our community to welcome Telling A People’s Story, the first major museum exhibition devoted to the art found within the pages of African-American children’s picture books. The exhibition emphasizes the strength of the illustrations as visual narrative representations of the African-American experience. This project celebrates the complex and diverse African-American experience through a lens intended for children and young readers. The exhibition offers something for all viewers through the representation of familiar and lesser-known people and the contributions of African Americans to an American identity.
The exhibit will be at the Library through June 12.
