The next class in our popular Create and Sip for Adults series with Alexis Starke is coming up on Friday, October 20th!  This month, we will create a still life inspired by Cuban artist Amelia Pelaez. After exploring the ornate architecture and design of Havanna, Cuba loved by Pelaez, we will work from fruit and our imaginations to create a unique and colorful still life painting.

Acrylic paints are ideal for this project, but you can use whatever materials you wish. You will want to have something black though- paint, crayon, Sharpie, etc. Each participant will receive a goody bag with chocolates, a mini bottle of wine, paper, and inspiration images. This is a live virtual class and participants are welcome to ask questions, exchange ideas, and share their work. Our projects are always designed to

be relaxed and beginner friendly but fun for all levels. Goody bags should be picked up from the library no later than 1pm the day of the program.

Stop by the library anytime we are open to view our Art Show of the Month- Julie Scholz: Tell-A-Vision.  The show will be up throughout the month of October.

Abstract acrylic paintings inspired by color and chaos

We remember the thousands of brave rescue workers and civilians who perished as a result of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. We remember those who selflessly gave their lives while desperately trying to save the lives of others. They are heroes who will not be forgotten.

We remember beloved fallen firefighter Dennis P. McHugh (Engine 22 Ladder 13) for whom our library is named. The generosity of the Dennis P. McHugh Foundation enabled the construction of the Library’s beautiful building overlooking Flywheel Park and the Hudson River, a symbol of the collective spirit and positive power of community strength to overcome adversity. His memory and legacy are with us always.

the American spirit will prevail over this tragedy
