Book smART Art Exhibition and Open House
Thursday, October 6, from 6 - 8 pm

Join us in celebrating Catherine Montgomery's beautiful illustrations in our library space. Catherine is an artist from Spencer who draws upon fables, folklore, and fairy tales for inspiration. The illustrations on display represent Sleeping Beauty, Yddgradsil (Norse mythology), Persephone (Greek), The Tiger and the Brahmin (India), The Frog Prince (African), Mulan (Chinese folk tale), Scheherazade (Arabian), and The Tailor who Sold his Soul (Mexican).

Refreshments will be served, and during the open house Catherine will talk about her art and answer questions about technique and how the artwork was created. She'll have a variety of art supplies and coloring sheets for adults and children to enjoy as they explore the world of storytelling and illustration. The project is made possible, in part, with public funds from NYSCA's Decentralization Program, administered regionally by the ARTS Council of the Southern Finger Lakes.
