Art, music, and drama will be featured at the third annual Friends of the Alger Public Library Second Expression event to be held from 5-7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 4, at the library.
Second Expression was inspired by the financial need of the library and the desire to provide visibility and income opportunity for the artists in Hardin County.
All artwork is created using old or unwanted printed materials, giving a "second expression" to the long life and usefulness of the printed word.
