New art is up in the Catherine L’ange Gallery on the Library’s third floor! Stop by over the next few months to explore the magical work of Mark Allen.

“Using color and form, each piece is inspired by a mood, memory, longing, or insight.”

Mark studied fine arts at Hobart College and was a member of the Art Students League. His paintings have been exhibited across the U.S. and are held in private collections internationally.
