Art in the Library officially launched its first exhibition, Transforming spaces, at a lively event in Davis Centre Library on Friday February 22, 2019.
Born from a desire to celebrate newly renovated Library spaces, Art in the Library is a showcase for the creativity of Waterloo's students, staff, faculty and alumni. The exhibit was made possible due to the hard work of Carmen Peters and the Art in the Library Committee. Read more about the Art in the Library initiative in Open Shelf, the magazine of the Ontario Library Association.
Art in the Library committee: Rose Koebel, Mary Lynne Bartlett, Carmen Peters (chair), Emily Christofides, Jennifer Haas, Nicole Marcogliese, Sharon Lamont and Sara Perkins.
