SUMMARY:The Astral Library with Kate Quinn - Virtual Author Talk
DESCRIPTION:Register and Ask Questions of the Author \nYou’re invited to join us for a virtual conversation with acclaimed author Kate Quinn about her latest fantastical work\, The Astral Library\, which poses the question: Have you ever wished you could live inside a book? Welcome to the Astral Library\, where books are not just objects\, but doors to new worlds\, new lives\, and new futures. \nAlexandria “Alix” Watson has learned one lesson from her barren childhood in the foster-care system: unlike people\, books will never let you down. Working three dead-end jobs to make ends meet and knowing college is a pipe dream\, Alix takes nightly refuge in the high-vaulted reading room at the Boston Public Library\, escaping into her favorite fantasy novels and dreaming of far-off lands. Until the day she stumbles through a hidden door and meets the Librarian: the ageless\, acerbic guardian of a hidden library where the desperate and the lost escape to new lives…inside their favorite books. \nThe Librarian takes a dazzled Alix under her wing\, but before she can escape into the pages of her new life\, a shadowy enemy emerges to threaten everyone the Astral Library has ever helped protect. Aided by a dashing costume-shop owner\, Alix and the Librarian flee through the Regency drawing rooms of Jane Austen to the back alleys of Sherlock Holmes and the champagne-soaked parties of The Great Gatsby as danger draws inexorably closer. But who does their enemy really wish to destroy—Alix\, the Librarian\, or the Library itself? \nRegister now to hear more about The Astral Library\, crafted for all bookworms and lovers of literature.  \nAbout the Author: Kate Quinn is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of historical fiction. A native of Southern California\, she attended Boston University\, where she earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in classical voice. A lifelong history buff\, she has written four novels in the Empress of Rome Saga and two books set in the Italian Renaissance before turning to the 20th century with The Alice Network\, The Huntress\, The Rose Code\, The Diamond Eye\, and The Briar Club. The Astral Library is her first foray into magic realism. She and her husband now live in Maryland with their rescue dogs.

SUMMARY:Art Talk - Music in Art
DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, music and visual art have danced together inspiring creativity across every medium. From masters like Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso\, who found rhythm in color and form\, to the rise of album artwork as a musician’s visual signature\, the connection between sight and sound has always been electric. \nThis creative relationship truly rocked in the 1960s and ’70s\, when album covers became works of art in their own right. That magic is still alive today! \nJoin us for an Art Talk with Kim Ivancovich from Hutchinson Community College\, where we’ll explore how music inspires art and vice versa. Talk about your favorite album covers of music themed artwork with us. \nThen\, get hands-on as we create our own music-inspired art together — a chance to connect\, create\, and celebrate our shared love of artistic expression. \nRSVP today and let us know you’ll be joining the fun! Thank you for supporting your library and Hutchinson Community College through your participation — we can’t wait to make art with you!
