PMPL provides the Adults in the Arts program because we believe that adults deserve exposure to arts and crafts in an open and friendly environment. Come and join us soon!
The Adults in the Arts Program at PMPL is sponsored by a matching Program Stream grant from Pocono Arts Council through the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts (PPA), the regional arts funding partnership of the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency. State government funding comes through an annual appropriation by Pennsylvania's General Assembly and from the National Endowment of the Arts, a federal agency. PPA is administered in this region by the Monroe County Arts Council.
Since 2005, our programs included the following featured local artists: June Schott (BWS), Liz Pemberton, Jill Elizabeth of Liztech Jewelry, Carmona, Laura Goss, Lois Kirkwood, Dan Ferguson, Peter Salmon, Rod Cameron, Mary Beth Gower, Daryl Speicher, Andrea Rimberg, Cherie Morris & Jill Gleeson-Doherty, just to name a few!
All our Adults in the Arts programs require registration. We maintain a wait list for popular events.
Please call the library if you have any questions @ 570-894-8860.
