April is National Poetry Month! Come celebrate by creating your own unique work using discarded book, newspaper, and magazine pages!
Also know as erasure, this art form involves deleting the words on a page and/or changing the order to create something new. All materials will be provided by the library. However, if you'd like, you can bring your own books/magazines/newspapers.
The Bridgeport Public Library is located in Bridgeport, WV. The City of Bridgeport began providing financial support for the library in the mid-1970s. The library was then located on the top floor of the Benedum Civic Center on Main Street. In 1994 the citizens and businesses of Bridgeport raised over 1.3 million dollars to purchase and renovate the Allstate Insurance building on Johnson Avenue. It then became the Bridgeport Public Library. The library offers a variety of services and resources including books, eBooks, audiobooks, movies, music, magazines, online databases, and more!
