Art Show & Gala Reception
The Friends of the Scotts Valley Library are hosting an exhibition and gala reception to showcase
the talents of several artists who work or volunteer at our local libraries.
Why Create Art?
Modern libraries are about much more than books and today’s library staff and volunteers comprise
a highly creative group. The Friends of the Scotts Valley Library (FSVPL) have long supported art in
the library. Roxanne Dwyer, the Friend’s art show curator, thought it would be fun to feature the
artistic work of some of the people who work at and support the library.
Gala Party
FSVPL is hosting a reception and gala for the artists on October 12, from 5 to 7pm. The public is
invited to attend and meet the artists. The event is free (donations appreciated). Light refreshments
and wine will be served.
Group Show
Thirteen artists are featured in the show. Their work includes photography, painting, woodcuts,
glass, collage, and fabric art. Each artist has been asked to briefly describe why they create art.
