The Friends of the Library are inviting the community to take part in a creative new program, “Tiny Art! Big Fun!”, open to participants of all ages.
Inspired by this year’s Summer Reading theme at the Fernandina Beach Library, “Unearth a Story,” the project challenges artists to express their imagination on a small canvas. Beginning May 13, supplies and entry information will be available at the library, with a limited number of 75 kits distributed.
Participants can use a variety of mediums, from watercolor and colored pencil to crayons, oil, or mixed media, to bring their ideas to life. Finished pieces will need to be returned by June 10.
Once submitted, the artwork will be displayed at the library from June 17 through June 26, where visitors will have the opportunity to vote for their favorites. The program will conclude with a reception on June 29, when the Friends of the Library will recognize the top three entries.
Community members are encouraged to start imagining the story they want to uncover, and turn it into a miniature masterpiece.
