Sohier Room, Main Library
Acrylic paintings by local artist Amanda Beard Garcia are on view this month. Garcia is exhibiting over 25 hand-painted portraits of beloved dogs and cats of friends in a self-initiated series titled “Pet Projects.” Garcia is a graphic designer, illustrator, and Beverly native. She holds a BFA in Illustration from the Rhode Island School of Design. When she’s not creating, you can probably find her at a rock concert, home-improving, reciting quotes from New Girl, or snuggling her six year-old Corgi, Pica. Contact Amanda Beard Garcia at hello@amandabeardgarcia.com. The exhibit is free and open to the public during regular library hours, when community meetings or library programs are not in progress.
