Exhibits
"Express Yourself"—Creative Work by Young Adults
Aug 25, 2010-Oct 1, 2010
Main Library, Lobby Case
Recreation: Go Green Summer Reading Recycled Art, created by local teens, is on view through Sept. 30 on the first floor of the Main Library in the Lobby Case. Our summer reading theme this past summer has been Go Green, and so local teens worked on crafts and projects to reuse materials to create something new. Our art exhibit is here to show the work our teens have done creating wallets out of comics, artwork from duct tape, and purses out of hardcover books. Also featured is a giant 3D origami dragon representing all of the hours teens have spent reading over this summer—constructed of recycled papers and folded partly by the teens themselves!
