Art of the Story

May 29 – June 30

Art of the Story invites artists from around the country to explore the connection between literature and the visual arts. This exhibition challenges artist to select a fiction or nonfiction book that moves them and create works in any medium that visually interpret or respond to its pages.

Books spark imagination, stir emotion, and transport us to new worlds—artists will bring those worlds to life!

Juried by Katie Rothley, Marketing & Public Relations Librarian at the Northville District Library, this exhibition celebrates the magic of storytelling and the creative journeys it inspires.
