Lauren Greenfield’s Girl Culture exhibit leaves us with incredilble attendance numbers (3,311 to be exact) and fond memories. It was amazing to see so much excitement and support surrounding Girl Culture. Lauren expressed to me how grateful and excited she was to exhibit her photographs inside a library.

I just finished scanning the last of the Telling Secrets postcards and uploading them to our Flickr page.

We've had several people ask us recently about Girl Culture's mature content and what happens when a young person expresses interest in seeing the exhibit.
New customers receive a vast amount of printed information from us. I usually give gallery visitors a copy of ConnectNOW, our monthly (and soon to be bi-monthly magazine of events and resources), Library Policies and Procedures, information about joining the Friends of the Library, the Exhibit Schedule, the current exhibit...
