We remember beloved fallen firefighter Dennis P. McHugh (Engine 22 Ladder 13), who was among the more than 2,800 brave rescue workers and civilians who perished as a result of the attacks on the World Trade Center.
Assemblages etc by Ralph Olsen
For the month of September, the Library presents Assemblages etc. by Ralph Olsen. An opening reception will be held on Sunday, September 8th, from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. All are welcome.
Artist’s Statement from Ralph Olsen
“Creativity is not a hobby, it’s a way of life.”
As a retired architect, I had to find an outlet for my creative “juices.” I tried painting on driftwood, photography, collage, and, most recently, assemblage. As an inveterate saver of all things, I find assemblage to be the ideal medium for me. I hope my artistic endeavors convey my love of life.
Mono Printing Fun!
Join us on Saturday, August 10th, at noon for a fun family art class! Adults and kids entering grades 1 and up. We will explore the differences between painting and mono printing with acrylic paints and easy to use Gelli Plates. Please register adults and kids separately.
Jorli Peña: Be the Moon
For the month of August, the Library presents Jorli Peña: Be the Moon. An opening reception for the artist will take place on Sunday, August 4th from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. All are welcome!
Jorli is a Piermont-based artist and writer who uses digital tools to manipulate and expand upon hand-drawn sketches. This whimsical series explores the idea of drawing in the world you want to create, like the moon draws in the tides. As part of the opening reception, there will be a kid- and adult-friendly interactive demo area where people can practice creating digital art from their own handwriting. To learn more about Jorli’s work or to shop her prints, visit bethemoon.com.
