BIG ART RECEPTION TODAY

Our November art exhibit is the photography of Maplewoodian Ben Lowy, an award-winning photographer who covers major stories worldwide. His images of Iraq are some of the most iconic of the 21st Century. His image from Hurricane Sandy was the first iPhone photo to grace the cover of Time magazine.



The exhibit is Life During Wartime: iPhone Images from Afghanistan

After more than 30 years of war in Afghanistan, the obstinate violence no longer represents an assault on daily life. Rather, life, in its obstinacy, represents a daily assault on the violence.



A reception with live music will feature the Maplewood Community Music Trombone Quartet playing military marches, patriotic medlies and War era numbers.

 1:00 pm at Main Library

Artist's talk at 1:30 

Free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served.
