Now Open - The North Oak Art Gallery!

January 09, 2013

Thanks to nearby Northgate Middle School of the North Kansas City School District, a large barren wall in the children’s area has turned into a beautiful art gallery. There are varied styles and mediums represented, including fingerprints using ink pad, half-face portraits in pencil, and frottage in oil pastels. Among the most striking pieces, however, are the Van Gogh inspired flowers in chalk and glue. The colors are vibrant and intense, drawing the viewer in to appreciate this world of color on a gray winter’s day.

We are happy to share our gallery, as well as more information on the arts. Our nonfiction section has a wide range of books on arts in general, specific artistic techniques, or a particular artist.
