Last year, over 100 works of art were submitted to our Young Artist Exhibition. This year, we are hoping for even more!
Artists between ages 7 - 18 may submit art in categories ranging from drawing, painting, photography, graphic art, and mixed media. Submissions will be accepted from May 14th through July 23rd. Local teachers, artists, and professionals will judge the submissions. Prizes will be awarded.
We're winding down Oak Grove storytimes for the summer. Our last ones are May 22nd and May 23rd. Storytime will resume September 4th. While we won't have storytime during the summer, there is still plenty of fun to be had. Our Summer Reading Program begins May 21st and will continue until July 31st. During this time, we have scheduled many fun programs and activities. Go to our Events Page to take a look and register for programs.
