Painting by Fred Cohen.

An exhibit of paintings by Fred Cohen of Piermont will be on display in the gallery during the month of February. Fred has worked for the last forty years or so as an interior painter, employing many different techniques. Some years ago he was taught a European design system that has influenced his work ever since. Concerned with elemental design, structure and color, this system has been incorporated into his fine art work as well.

He has exhibited internationally and won a Prix de Paris award and a Best Painting in Show award at Lincoln Center. In addition, Cohen has created everything from record jackets to posters to murals for Montefiore Hospital in NYC. A copy of his whimsical poster of a much beloved white cat hangs in our children’s room.

Mariela had read Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo and likes the author very much. She wants to read Tiger Rising next. Hailey, Brooke, and Sia went to see the movie We Bought a Zoo and said it was very good and that it was based on a true story.

FREE children's music classes held in the Library's Children's Room. Presented by Moon River Music Together with Catherine Rubin, the class will explore how the early childhood program of Music Together® teaches music through play.

Young children are given the opportunity to develop basic competence in music by providing them with a rich musical experience in a relaxed and playful environment. Catherine believes that every child is musical and that each child needs a stimulating, supportive music environment to enjoy the wonderful human capacity for music-making.

Join us to see how much fun music classes can be!
