We are proud to have contributed to a new art installation in town!
Incubator is composed of approximately 2,000 books, some of which are stacked, creating book "towers" supported by a "foundation" of books that celebrate women's roles in both fiction and non-fiction. The new commission was inspired by the artist's multiple res
earch trips at Redwood City Public Library and current events. It includes a number of books from the library's collections on women's history! Join the
Redwood City Improvement Association, the
City of Redwood City and
Fung Collaboratives, for a free public opening reception on Saturday, March 9 at 4 p.m. at the Art Kiosk located in Courthouse Square.
