Continuing from last month, North Cobb Regional Library is hosting the South Cobb Arts Alliance (SCAA) Annual Member Exhibit until June 28th. The exhibit provides local artists of the metro Atlanta area, both popular and new, with the opportunity to share with the community an eclectic range of styles, mediums, and themes. According to the SCAA website, “[the art of its members will] stop casual glancing viewers in their tracks to admire what they see.”
There’s no registration required to attend this SCAA exhibit; however, a non-obligatory donation may be requested on entry. Also, there is no word of artwork sales at this event, but having a wallet or purse on hand wouldn’t hurt—just in case admiration strikes.
On June 14th, the SCAA Art Exhibit Reception will be held at the library from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
In addition to the exhibit, North Cobb Regional Library is also offering three Teen Summer Programs for ages 12–17. The programs are Retro Craft, Blackout Poetry, and Light Up Globes. Each program occur weekly, beginning Wednesday, June 11th at 2:00 PM.
