Programs and Events

MOVING WALL MUSEUM

Dish towel from France

January MWM will feature Margaret Doody's dish towels from around the world: "Collecting dish towels began with my mom and her kitchen in the 1960s, when our family moved from the Midwest to Connecticut and started exploring New England on family vacations. Relatively inexpensive souvenirs, they reminded us of our travels long after we'd returned to everyday life -- and chores. Decades later the tradition continues now with my own family's travels, bringing happy memories of times in far off places to my own kitchen here in North Wilmot."

In February, prints by Brian Andreas will be exhibited on the Moving Wall. Donated by a library patron, the works of art will be offered for sale to benefit the library. Brian is  an American writer, artist, publisher and speaker widely known for his simple and poetic short stories of 50 to 100 words, often accompanied by distinctive color drawings.
