Everyone has a story to tell. Join Greatriarchs featured in the Polklore Micro-Museum at your local library branch, and create while being inspired by neighborhood history and fantastic people!
Storytelling Drawing Sessions use long-term residents as models to get to know their stories. Artists are welcome to create in whatever medium they prefer (ink, writing, crocheting, painting), and are encouraged to bring their own supplies - but a limited amount of supplies will be available at the library.
This program is being offered in partnership with the Harrison Center.
Follow these sessions at Spades Park branch in April, and Martindale-Brightwood in May before they return to the Polklore Micro-Museum for the summer.

About the branch
As the hub of the Indianapolis Public Library system, Central Library showcases renowned architecture and services. The original 1917 building, designed by Paul Cret and constructed of Indiana limestone in the Greek Doric style, was considered one of the most outstanding secular buildings in the U.S. Its six-story glass and steel-framed addition, designed by Evans Woollen, opened in 2007.
