What does hope mean to you? 🦋

Let your community know by decorating these butterflies with us in collaboration with the United for Waukesha Resiliency Center for a special art project at the Library!

There are four decorating stations throughout the Library: in the atrium near the puzzle corner, in the Teen Zone, in Studio 321, and up in the Children's Area. After you've decorated a butterfly, bring it to one of our desks to be added to our arrangement!

Your hope matters and is a celebration of all the healing we've done as a community. Your hope deserves to be shared!
