Along with being too busy to Blog, I have been working on the Jean Hutton Memorial Unveiling for just after our Refurbishing project. The family wanted us to have a unveiling of the specail art dedicated in honor of their mother who use to volunteer for the library. We had contacted local artists to submit their work and Sheena Hemmert's art was chosen. The Board felt it really symbolized the new motto for our library. The motto is "Bringing Words To Life!" The art has wheat and milo to represent the hertitage of the area, and the colors and other parts of the panels represent a spirit of creativity. So many people helped with this project, I should not mention names. If you want to know you can contact me.
The Hutton Memorial contributed funds through the Dallas Women's Foundation. This memorial purchase the specially created work surface or desk for staff, the new front counter, the theme wall, the art panels, special clock, and new book cart to make a brand new experience at the checkout counter for our library. The Hutton family was great to work with throughout the process.
