Art shows at York library
YORK — During January, February and March, the York Public Library will be showing the art works of Charles Woodbury. There will be an opening reception and fireside chat at the library on Tuesday at 5 p.m.
Private collectors in the community have lent dozens of works for the show, including paintings in watercolor and oil, etchings, drawings, sculpture and archival photographs.
