Indianapolis-based artist Jim Walker will share prompts and questions with visitors to encourage sharing hopes, dreams, and visions. In addition to recording their voices, visitors will have the option to use digital and analog tools (everything from a laptop to a salt shaker) to team up with Walker to create accompanying soundscapes for their words. The completed brief audio pieces will air on the Indianapolis art and community radio station, WQRT 99.1 FM, and be available online with QR code access via signage and small displays in library branches.

In memory of Ken McCune by Karen McCune.

About the branch

Following years of volunteer-staffed service in an empty church building, a permanent library serving Franklin Township, the Wanamaker Branch, opened in 1969 on Southeastern Avenue. To meet the needs of a rapidly growing township, the branch was replaced in 2000 by the current 18,000-square-foot Franklin Road Branch.
