Patrick Goldsmith's "Earth Squared" PLAINSBORO -- The annual "Local Color" exhibit by members of the Plainsboro Library's Artists' Group will be on display in the library through Sept. 29.
The literary term "local color" is "loosely defined as writing derived from the features of a certain place or from its inhabitants."
For the exhibit -- which includes a range of drawings, paintings, dyes, recycled art and sculpture, mosaics and mixed media pieces -- each artist was given the option to write a poem or notes about their work in homage to the term.
At a closing reception scheduled for 2 p.m. on Sept. 27, each of the 33 artists in the group will cast their vote for a fellow artist to win "Best in Show."
The library is located at 9 Van Doren St. Hours of operation are Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Friday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
