Art Crawl!

Just a heads up that the annual Super Crawl is going on this Saturday on James St. North downtown Hamilton.

It's a lot of fun and a good chance to check out local musicians, artists, and shops. It runs all day so hopefully you can make it! The library will have a booth so make sure you stop by and say hi!

For more information including which bands will be performing (incl. K'Naan and Great Lake Swimmers), check out the main site here.

See you there!

Supercrawl!

This Saturday is Supercrawl downtown! If you don't know what that is, check out their fantastic website here.   This Saturday is ALSO the Locke street festival and there will be buses going to and fro, so don't worry about transportation.

There's lots of awesome bands who are going to be playing and lots of amazing art (of course). Here at the library we will be announcing the winner of our children's LEGO contest and Deborah Ellis (!!!) will also be here launching her latest book, True Blue. I know a lot of you have read her books so if you want a chance to see her live and in person, come to Central Library at 1:30 p.m.

Irena Komadinic

Did you know that we have an art gallery at Central library? It's called Gallery on 4 and right now it's showing local artist Irena Komadinic. Her art incorporates painting and stitching to get a really cool blend of textures.
To the left is one of her pieces, Open Heart Surgery.
Definitely stop by Central library during the month of August and take a look on the fourth floor (or check out her website above for more of her art).
