Join us for “Create and Sip: Library Style” on Thursday, October 17th! Drop in anytime between 6 and 8 pm. We will take inspiration from Mexican folk artists including Alfonso Castillo (pictured here) and the Linares Family who use Día de Muertos (The Day of the Dead) as a theme in their work. We’ll be painting the Library windows (!) as well as creating a take-home project. Enjoy wine and some delicious homemade Mexican treats. This event will coincide with Piermont’s Late Night Shopping event. Please register through our online events calendar or call us at 359-4595.

We remember beloved fallen firefighter Dennis P. McHugh (Engine 22 Ladder 13), who was among the more than 2,800 brave rescue workers and civilians who perished as a result of the attacks on the World Trade Center.

For the month of September, the Library presents Assemblages etc. by Ralph Olsen. An opening reception will be held on Sunday, September 8th, from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m.  All are welcome.
Artist’s Statement from Ralph Olsen
“Creativity is not a hobby, it’s a way of life.”
As a retired architect, I had to find an outlet for my creative “juices.”  I tried painting on driftwood, photography, collage, and, most recently, assemblage.  As an inveterate saver of all things, I find assemblage to be the ideal medium for me.  I hope my artistic endeavors convey my love of life.

Join us on Saturday, August 10th, at noon for a fun family art class!  Adults and kids entering grades 1 and up.  We will explore the differences between painting and mono printing with acrylic paints and easy to use Gelli Plates.  Please register adults and kids separately.
