Get in touch with your artistic side and make some sidewalk chalk art at the L.E. Shore Library! We’ll supply the chalk (and cold lemonade!), just bring yourself and your imagination.

On Sunday, May 3, drop by The Gallery at the L.E. Shore Library between 2-4pm for a relaxed art pop up with Beverley Smith, featuring new work from her third year at the La Macina Di San Cresci artist residency in Italy.
This is a casual pop-up art show, where you can ask me about the residence and my work. I am amazed how inspirational I find working in Tuscany. I feel my work has evolved quickly in this environment, and I look forward to sharing with you the results of these magical months.
