Gallery at Plumb Memorial Library in Shelton displays artist's work


The Gallery at Plumb Memorial Library is featuring art
by Jacqueline A. Berg now through Dec. 11.

From the Shelton Library System:

"Jackie is a lifelong painter and creative who majored in journalism at the University of Iowa and was employed as a copywriter for the Chicago Tribune in the mid-1940s. 

"She was later instrumental in the founding of her late husband John Berg’s advertising agency in Stamford, playing a crucial creative role as art director and strategist in the early years of the successful company.

"While raising a family in New Canaan, Jackie found time to take oil painting instruction at the Silvermine Art Guild in Norwalk and created still lifes and scenes inspired by her travels. The oil paintings, watercolors, and pencil drawings will be on display in the library gallery until Dec. 11, 2025."

Littles' Art Studio on tap Tuesday at Derby Neck Library



DERBY - Every other Tuesday, bring your little one in-person to Derby Neck Library for some artistic exploration of various art mediums! The next program is tomorrow, April 18.

The Library is at 307 Hawthorne Ave.

One session will feature finger painting, while another will have stamps, and then another will have chalk. 

Your child will get to experiment with all sorts of artwork, bringing out their little Picasso (and maybe a bit of yours, too)! And the best part is, we clean up the mess. This program is targeted to ages 3-5, but everyone is welcome! 

No registration required, but sign up for our Youth Services mailing list to stay in the loop on cancellations by clicking here.
