Park West Gallery Art Book Donation Helps Support National Library Week
First sponsored in 1958, National Library Week is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association (ALA) and libraries across the country each April. It is a time to celebrate the contributions of our nation’s libraries and librarians and to promote library use and support. This year, the celebration will take place April 11-16 and the theme is “Create your own Story @ your library.”
In its first donation outside of Michigan and Florida, where Park West Gallery offices are located, the Park West Gallery CARES philanthropic initiative donated a collection of art books to the Lake Geneva Public Library located in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. In honor of National Library Week, which the Library celebrates all month, the books will be displayed during the month of April and available for check out.
The display is also done in conjunction with the “Arts Alive! in Lake Geneva” celebration this April. This city-wide event was initiated by Carol Smith of the Geneva Lake Art Association (GLAA), in collaboration with several art galleries and associations in Lake Geneva.
