Call for artists for 2020 exhibits at the library! | 02/10/2019-15/12/2019 | All Day

Call for artists for 2020 exhibits at the library!

2020 will be another spectacular year at the library and will mark a full year of the library’s supporting local artists. Sometimes these artists render the world in a way that is new, and fresh and exciting, sometimes they capture moments both intimate and universal all at once! At the end of the day they all are telling stories which is something familiar, satisfying and meaningful to those of us who love the library.

To schedule 4 art shows in 2020, the exhibitions committee announces an open a call for applications for shows to be held:

  • Early (mid January-early March)  6 weeks
  • Spring (Mid March-debut of May) 6 weeks
  • Summer (Mid May- debut of July) 7 weeks
  • Fall (Mid-september – mid-november)

Applications should include a text about your work & 5 images to illustrate your form of art.

Deadline for applications is December 15th, 2019. Please send all applications to jp.molenaar@yahoo.fr

Get that old Christmas spirit...come caroling!

Looking for that good old Christmas spirit…? Join the members of the English-language Library in Angers for Christmas caroling on Sunday, December 15th. All you need to do is to wear red and green WARM clothes and a red santa hat if you have one! Meet at the library at 2:15 before going out to carol in Angers. If you would like, bring some baked Christmas treat to share with everybody for when we come back to the library. No need to sign up, just come and sing to your heart’s content! Free and open to the public! If you prefer not to sing but would like to listen to the carols here is our itinerary:

  • 14:15 – meet at the library to warm up the vocal cords
  • 14:45 – caroling on the Esplanade Coeur de Maine
  • 15:15 – caroling in the Cathedrale
  • 16:00 – caroling in the Château d’Angers
  • 16:50 – caroling in or in front of the Grand Théâtre d’Angers
  • 17:30 – meet back at the library to share Christmas goodies and drinks (feel free to bring something)
