I want to share something new that we tried . The library sponsored "Youth arts and crafts fair". We asked youth 12-20years old to share their art and crafts with us. They could enter 2 pieces in both art and crafts. I of course wanted high participation. But we had 10 art pieces and only 5 craft pieces ( I thought we would have a lot of crafts, that's what I get for thinking). We asked church attendees to come to library to vote on 1 art piece and 1 craft piece. We are gaining ribbon awards for 1-3 place based on votes. This actually got some people into the library that had not visited library ever or since one NEW SANCTUARY open. It is VERY FAR from the library, more than 100 yards. I'm going to try to include photos of pieces entered . But I have been asked when we will do this again and when we will do a fair for our adults and our children. I think we may do our children next!
