Libraries are more than just book storage warehouses. I love how libraries have become places where communities connect and create lasting experiences. The Fredericton Public Library is proud to offer kids the chance to not only make art, but have it displayed prominently on our gallery wall. It is important to give children's art a special place in the library for audiences to appreciate.
Friedrich Froebel, the father of kindergarten, believed that young children should be involved in both making their own art and enjoying the art of others. This is imporant in the development of the whole child and their ability to foster empathy with others.
