CONCERT IN THE COMMONS
In December 2017, in the midst of the dramatic renovation to replace six levels of stack-shelving units with soaring new public spaces, the Parkway Central Library welcomed a striking musical performance in the unfinished construction space. Vocalist Katherine Skovira and flutist Anna Urrey performed "the shape of the world we create," a celebration of the myriad forms of literature, art, and music that intersect in our public libraries.
