M.A.P.S. Artists-in-Residence
Beginning in June 2023, M.A.P.S., a local arts nonprofit, will be artists-in-residence at the Great Barrington Libraries. Join M.A.P.S. as they create artworks inspired by the libraries’ collection. They will paint, sculpt, garden, compose music, build puppets, and more!
This residency will culminate in the growth of a “Literature Garden” that will thrive at the library for years to come.
What is a Literature Garden?
It is a garden inspired by beautiful works of literature and poetry! As you read, make note of any references to plants and add a quotation to an ever-growing collection! In spring 2024, we will grow these plants and create a garden!
