Please join us for a special evening in honor of this year's Summer Reading Community Spotlight organization, the Locker Project! For the month of July, the Locker Project has decided to use their time in the Stier Family Gallery to shine their own spotlight on some of the local farms they partner with.
At 6:00pm, come by to hear in their own words what the Locker Project does, why, and how--and of course, hang out afterwards to ask them any questions, grab a snack and a drink, and take a look at the beautiful photo gallery showcasing their featured farm partners! |
