Michael Albert, Author of "An Artist's America" will be at the LaValle Public Library on July 29th, for a program designed to appeal to the artist in all of us!
He will give a short talk on the importance of art in everyday life, followed by a hands-on experience for all participants. He will also present the library with a copy of his book to replace the one lost in the 2018 flood.
Stop by to see the many examples of his work that we currently have at the library or wander through his website at www.michaelalbert.com.
When you come to the experience, please bring colorful boxes (cereal, pizza, etc) with pictures of letters to make collages. 8x10 cardboard would also be appreciated.
Hope to see you there!!
We are attempting to reactivate the FRIENDS group.
The library board takes care of all library business but the FRIENDS is an auxiliary group that supports the library and helps in many ways such as volunteering, helping with programs, helping with bake sales and book sales a couple of times a year and supporting the library with their activities during the year.
The library board meets on Monday, June 17th at 6:30 PM. There will be a meeting of the FRIENDS at 7:15 PM (following the library board meeting). Please pass the word and invite anyone you feel might be interested in attending.
Our newly renovated library, a new library director and many interesting programs and activities going on makes the library an important focal point of the LaValle community. We want you to be involved in these efforts.
Hope to see you at the meeting on June 17th at 7:15 PM.
