Enticing people to come to the library is always a goal for any public library. To encourage this, Otonabee-South Monaghan Libraries are offering to display local and county artists’ work. ‘Art in the Library’ began in the fall of 2017, with month long displays and artist-in-residence sessions with artists demonstrating their craft in person.

Anne Corke
Anne Corke is a retired IT professional living in Cavan Monaghan Township with her two Lakeland Terriers. Her favourite subject to photograph is nature, from panoramic landscapes to macro views of flowers. The endless patterns and colours of the natural world continually amaze her. Anne also enjoys dogs, writing, gardening and road trips (to take photographs of course!). For her, the most appealing aspect of both photography and gardening is the unique perspective that each of us brings to the hobbies. Anne is the coordinator of East Central Therapy Dogs and a life member of the Canadian Kennel Club.
