Mead Public Library featured Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus for our September Book to Art Club discussion. For projects we turned discarded library books into circus tents that were inspired by our favorite aspects of the story. Below are pictures of our completed display. - Ann Miller

Our very first "The Book to Art Club" discussion at Mead Public Library in Sheboygan, WI was a success. We had 8 people, only half of which were staff. Our four non-staff attendees seemed excited to attend our next discussion, "The Family Fang", and one even took fliers for friends.
I was thrilled to lead our inaugural discussion with Jasper Fforde's "Shades of Grey: The Road to High Saffron". In addition to basic art supplies, we had a stereoscope as a leapback item, laptop and book form Ishihara tests, a laptop showing videos from Jasper Fforde's website, and Ishihara spoon cupcakes.
