A collection of new literary-based mixed media works and collages by local artist Tracy Poindexter-Canton, inspired by various books.

Some pieces draw directly from written sources, while others are created intuitively as visual vignettes that suggest their own narratives. Through layering, fragmentation, and assembly, the work explores how stories can be built, altered, and experienced through image and material.

Library Hours: Mon–Thurs & Sat: 9–6 Fri: 9–4 Sun: 12–4
