February 3rd – 28th. Lydia Hassan is and always was drawing, painting, sewing, and making and creating things. Influenced by how things are made, observing nature’s snow on branches, clouds in the sky and waves on the beach, she was inspired to pursue her passion for visual and graphic design. Noticing store-window displays, amusement park rides, advertising signage and magazine topography influenced Lydia to include them in her artwork as she studied illustration and editorial design at Syracuse University. These concerns landed her in NYC working in advertising as an Art Director doing program covers, magazine spreads and newsletter layouts.Read More Read More

If you visit the library, you might have noticed we have an entire shelf of jigsaw puzzles. You might also have wondered… what’s that about? Well, besides grabbing a book or movie for the colder weekends at home, you can also grab a puzzle (or two) as well! We have a wide array of puzzles, varying in sizes (mostly 500 & 1000 piece) and subjects. You are more than welcome to check out a puzzle by bringing it to the Information Desk and giving the librarian your library card. There is no real time limit on how long you can keep the puzzle- just return it when you’re done!Read More Read More
