Summer heats up when several artists visit the library to join us for the fourth annual celebration of local artists The Face Behind the Art. This year we will have four celebrated artists visit the library to talk about their lives and their works.
On August 26th at 6 pm, poet and journalist Adolfo Guzman-Lopez will talk about his connections with National City and the role it has played on his works. A reporter on public radio Mr. Guzman-Lopez has been involved in the arts and education all his life and a plaque commemorating his poem that he wrote for the opening of the National City Library can be seen inside the entrance to the library.
