Teen Art Studio

I'm so excited that the library has now invited a group of teens to begin an Advisory Council where they get to choose the things that they would like to do and to be involved in...and that one of those things is a monthly Teen Art Studio.  This past week I spent time gathering supplies and adding gesso to cradled hardboard panels.  The weather was so beautiful that I decided to prepare them out in the garden so that the sun would dry each coat quickly.  I love that my job entails selecting and preparing art supplies, that the teens specifically asked for this, and that we have some amazing local artists and teachers who are interested in introducing a variety of art forms to the students.
