Exhibit: "Plenty of Things to Do" In-Person
This special exhibit, "Plenty of Things to Do," features original manuscripts and artwork created by renowned artist and illustrator Doris Burn. A long-time resident of the San Juan Islands, Doris (Wernstedt) Burn authored and illustrated the 1965 classic “Andrew Henry’s Meadow,” which won the Washington Governor’s Art Award. She also wrote the much-loved favorites “The Summerfolk,” and “The Tale of Lazy Lizard Canyon,” and served as illustrator for a range of other well-known children’s works. The exhibit explores some of the themes and aspects of Burn’s work that have connected with readers across generations.The pieces on display in this exhibit were selected from a far larger collection of Burn’s original works, which were donated to Western Libraries Heritage Resources in 2015 as a gift of the Burn Family via the Doris Burn Legacy LLC..
The exhibit opens Monday, Oct. 3, 2016, and will be available for viewing in Western Libraries Special Collections (Wilson Library 6th Floor) weekdays between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m., excluding weekends and holidays, throughout fall quarter.
