YAY! MAZZA exhibit coming to the Saline Dist. Library
Passing this info along, please forgive any cross-posting! So excited! A MAZZA Museum exhibit is coming to the Saline District Library, Saline, Michigan. The MAZZA Museum houses "the world’s first and most diverse collection of original artwork by children’s book illustrators. Through these select pieces you will encounter the creative processes behind picture book art — cover work, color separations, editorial notes on preliminaries, character development sketches, preparatory storyboards, and much more." June 3rd through Aug. 26th. Make it a destination this summer! I'm going! And if you love children's books you really should take a trip to the University of Findlay in Ohio where the museum is. It is truly one of the gems of the Great Lakes region. More info at: http://www.salinelibrary.org/event/summer-art-show/ . Please pass this word along to writing groups, your children's librarians, teachers, other staff and patrons who may be interested. It's a great opportunity for all.

Thank you, Shutta, for spreading the word. I'd also like people to know that this exhibit has been arranged through the generosity of the individual artists contributing to Mazza Museum's Building Blocks of Picture Book Art exhibition, curated by Dan Chudzinski and the Mazza Museum, located at the University of Findlay. Funding is generously provided through a grant from the Carl F. Schrandt Endowment Fund. Thanks to Audra Eddy, one of our Youth Librarians, for persevering to bring this to fruition. We are very excited to have this wonderful art exhibit coming to our library! Mary Ellen Mulcrone Director Saline District Library 555 N. Maple Rd.
