EVENTS @ THE LIVINGSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY

 

 

 

A Message from the Director

 

Connect with the Community through Ltown Radio

 


Livingston Library Community, 

Did you know that the Library has a podcast? Ltown Radio is an entertaining way to stay up to date on library news, learn about new book releases, and most importantly, stay connected with the Livingston community. 

On our most recent episode of Ltown Radio, the Library was pleased to interview Hugh Mahon, an executive member of the Arts Council of Livingston. In addition to being a successful artist, Hugh also worked as an art educator in the Livingston Public School District for nearly forty years. During this interview, Hugh spoke about his experiences as a teacher, his philosophies as an artist, and the great work that the Arts Council does to support and promote local artists in and around the community.
