Join us for the ArtWall Reception celebrating our newest exhibit in collaboration with Lee H. Kellogg School on Saturday, January 25th from 11am – 1pm!
Madeleine Stern, Kellogg School’s Art Instructor received one cigar box for each student at the school from David M. Hunt Library’s ArtWall program and set up workshops for each grade level to explore the theme of “home.”
Stern said, “Depending on the student’s creative interests these turned out to be representations of their own home, a place where they feel at home, or an imaginative exploration of the idea.”
There will be a reception for the public and parents of the artists on Saturday January 25 from 11am to 1pm. The exhibition will be on display from January 17 through February 7. This event is free and open to the public.
