Special thanks to local photographer Keith Mansur for his artist talk. Keith shared many amazing wildlife photographs, interesting facts about the behaviour of our local wildlife, and fun stories about how he was able to capture these special moments (with the help of his pup) all so he can share the beauty of nature with others. We definitely packed the art gallery space with about 40 people in attendance. If you would like to visit his art show it will be hanging in the Library’s Art Gallery until end of April.
