[Michlib-l] Janie Paul author talk

[Stair Library]

Good morning!

If you're looking for something to do and happen to be in the neighborhood
(Ha!...Ohio border southwest of Adrian) Thursday, May 2, at 6 p.m., come
bop in to Stair District Library in Morenci for a visit with Michigan
Notable Book author Janie Paul, a former art professor at the University of
Michigan and the senior curator and co-founder of the Exhibitions of
Artists in Michigan Prisons.

She'll be speaking at the library about her incredibly interesting
book, *Making
Art in Prison: Survival and Resistance*, which features photos of art
created by incarcerated people accompanied by their essays. (Heck, make
Morenci your destination! We know you're not likely to "happen to be in the
neighborhood!"

Or, plan to visit one of the other four libraries hosting Janie Paul as
part of the wonderful Michigan Notable Books program sponsored by the
Library of Michigan, the Library of Michigan Foundation and Michigan
Humanities: Center Line, Bellaire, Harrison, and Richland. Click on "May
Dates, Authors, and Locations" at this link:

)

Janie Paul's talk and slide show will be followed by a Q&A session, book
sales and signing, and hearty refreshments. See flyer attached.

Also featured:  an art exhibit featuring works from incarcerated people
from Janie Paul's art collection as well as works from local residents'
collections, a display of other coffee table books, and other 2024 Michigan
Notable Books. Art Studio Hours have ended, but ask to try out art supplies
from our Art Cart during regular library hours.

Thanks,
Colleen
