Event Details

 

“Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment.” - Article 3, Library Bill of Rights

Join us for a powerful and timely exhibition reception featuring Feminist Image Group (FIG) artists whose new exhibition, Land of Milk & Honey examines the many faces of censorship—past and present—and celebrates the vital role libraries play in protecting intellectual freedom. This exhibition brings together visual works that confront banned books, silenced histories, and the ongoing fight for free expression. 

Featuring work by Jennifer Spencer, Cindy Zimmerman, Susan Osborn, Kathy Nida, Helen Redman, Nanette Newbry, Judith Christensen, Doris Bittar, Judith Parenio, Ruth Wallen, Bridget Rountree, Marty Ornish, Kirsten Aaboe, Momilani Ramstrum, and Stacie Birky Greene.

Opening Reception will take place Saturday, June 21, 2025 from noon – 2 p.m.

This event is free and open to the public. All are welcome.

Together, let’s stand for creative freedom, the right to read, and the power of art to challenge and inspire.
