UPDATE: Films on Demand Slowdown
On Tuesday, October 9, the Films on Demand data center experienced a major equipment failure, which took their sites down. They have restored their sites on backup servers, but they are not optimized for heavy use. Therefore, you may find their sites to be slower than usual until they are able to replace the damaged equipment. The parent company, InfoBase, issued the following update: “We continue to make significant and consistent progress in resolving the last remaining speed and connectivity issues.” No estimated date for completion was provided.

Sue Murphy : “Figures & Faces”
October 10 – November 30, 2018
Award-winning artist and art teacher Susan Murphy presents her oils and watercolors. A signature member of the Central New York Watercolor Society since 1986, Susan’s paintings have been in galleries, museums and national and regional shows. Opening reception on Sunday, October 21 from 2:00 – 4:00 pm.
Ms. Murphy says, “I have always been interested in expressing myself in different media, but I worked earnestly in watercolor when my children were younger, not only because I loved the flowing quality of the pigment, but because it was so easily packed away. I do work in other media, but always come back to watercolor.” After studying 10 years with Mary Ellen Silkotch, a New Jersey Portrait painter, Ms Murphy went on to receive a dual Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts and in Education at Syracuse University in 1974. She then completed a Masters of Education Degree from SU in 1979, teaching art in the Phoenix, NY Central Schools until retiring in 2014.
The exhibit is free and open to the public during regular library hours. For more information, call (315) 445-4323.
