Group art show opens at Hunt

Admirers take in the new art show at Hunt Library.

Patrick L. Sullivan

FALLS VILLAGE — The “Playing with Art” show that opened last week at the David M. Hunt Library is a real grab-bag.

The show includes creations from a collection of area artists utilizing a variety of media.

There is a section reserved for artworks made by children.

There are quilts from the Hunt Library Quilters.

There are pieces from local artists, including Robert Cronin, Erica Crofut and Ken Musselman.

There are animations based on the books and art of Eric Carle.

And hovering above it all are richly detailed dragonflies, made by art students of the New York Educational Program in Manhattan, including Falls Village’s John Hodgson.

The subtitle of the show is “Art and Animation for Children of All Ages.” The sense of playfulness is pervasive.

The show is on display through April 25.
