Art at the Library
The Great Falls Public Library is hosting an art exhibit by Deeling Gregory during the months of February and March. Deeling will exhibit a variety of paintings and fabric art. The pottery of Lisa Botti will also be exhibited through the month.
Deeling will exhibit a variety of paintings and fabric art. Deeling is a graduate of the San Francisco Art Institute and has had pieces exhibited around the world. Also exhibiting in March is an exhibit by the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernia. This will consist of items, both artistic and historical, relating to Ireland. Finally, in March the library also welcomes an exhibit by students in the Great Falls Public Schools in honor of Youth Art Month.
Youth Art Month is an annual observance each March to emphasize the value of art and art education for all children and to encourage public support for quality school art programs. Established in 1961, YAM provides a forum for acknowledging skills that are not possible in other subjects. The Council for Art Education, a sponsor of Youth Art Month, adopted the national theme, “Start With Art, Learn for Life.” Art Education develops self-esteem, appreciation of the work of others, self expression, cooperation with others, and critical thinking skills. All of these skills are vital to the success of our future leaders – our children.
A reception for the Youth Art Month Exhibit and Deeling Gregory will be held on Friday, March 2, from 4:00 – 6:00 pm. It is free and open to the public.
