The Arts in Libraries

To me, libraries, perhaps especially public libraries, are natural spaces for the arts, and it is natural for libraries to partner with artists, whether performing or visual artists.

This article (Huffington Post) showcases 5 ways libraries cultivate community art.  Perhaps you’ll want to try these in your library if you haven’t already, or perhaps you’ll think of some other way to showcase the arts.

Because, you know, the arts aren’t just a frill.  They enrich our lives.  Much like libraries do.
