All are welcome to celebrate groundbreaking artists Georgia O’Keeffe and Yayoi Kusama with special thematic art projects suitable for ages 1 to 100. Together with the library’s helpful staff, attendees will dig into these women’s creative legacies in abstract expressionism, pop art, and big pictures of flowers that ONLY represent flowers and not anything else (winky winky). Supplies are provided to make paint dot art, which APL calls “a fun, meditative, and expressive technique that will bring out your inner artist.” To make a beautiful painting with your own hands, for no more than it costs you to take the bus or drive your car and for only an hour on a weekday: Truly, this is the beauty of our public libraries. – James Scott
