Limestone Township Library District to Hold Art Show

 

Anniversaries are a big deal. It’s meaningful to have put many years into a business or service. As Limestone Township Library District celebrates 30 years of serving the community, we want to celebrate our community’s creative talents by hosting an Art Show.

For the month of April, we want to display 2D pieces (photography, painting, drawing, digital, etc.) throughout the library that has been created by members of our community, showcasing the talent in Limestone and surrounding areas. All ages are encouraged to submit work to be displayed.

To be a part of this month-long art show, community members can drop off their 2D art pieces at the library until Friday, March 27. Each entry, one per person, must have a completed Drop-off form. Drop-off forms can be found at the library as well as on our website (limestonelibrary.org).

Please be aware that we are not accepting 3D pieces (sculpture, ceramics, etc) or pieces that have an 18+ theme.  

If you have any questions regarding the Art Show, please call the library at 815-939-1696 or see us at the front desk.
