SUMMARY:Exhibitionists Book Club: St. Lucy's Home for Girl's Raised by Wolves
DESCRIPTION:When Karen Russel’s debut short story collection fell onto our collective psyches in 2006\, it made some lasting alterations to the landscape of literature. A singularly weird and raucous vision. Come with us as we check in on it on its twentieth anniversary and reflect with it in conjunction with Shelburne Museum’s exhibit of On Point: Needlework from the Garthwaite Family Collection. This book/exhibit discussion will take place at the Pierson Library and be facilitated by Shelburne Museum’s Kat Redniss. And mark your calendars for June 4th\, when Kat will lead the Exhibitionists on a creative response at our partner’s library in Charlotte. Copies available at the first-floor circulation desk.

SUMMARY:Exhibitionists Book Club: On Point Tour (Offsite at Shelburne Museum)
DESCRIPTION:The Exhibitionists are back with another series pairing great books with exhibits currently on display at Shelburne Museum. This year\, in addition to the free gallery visits and discussions held at the Pierson Library\, we’re adding a third creative response event at the Charlotte Library (a new partner on this series). This first event this season is a tour of the Museum’s exhibit On Point\, led by Public Programs Educator Kat Redniss. On Point\, at the Dana Spencer Textiles Gallery\, features schoolgirl artworks from the Garthwaite Family Collection. Expect extraordinary sewing boxes\, theorem paintings\, silk-on-silk embroideries\, and more. We all think this will go swell with Karen Russel’s 2006 collection\, St. Lucy’s Home for Girl’s Raised by Wolves\, up for discussion at the Pierson Library later this month. For this tour\, meet at the side gate of the Shelburne Museum\, directly to the right of the entrance.

SUMMARY:Exhibitionist's Book Club: A Council of Dolls
DESCRIPTION:The Exhibitionists are excited to pair the museum’s interactive Indigenous textile art exhibit\, Make a Noise\, with a powerful historical and magical-realist family saga. The Council of Dolls explores the devastating effects of settler colonialism through multiple perspectives\, including the voices of dolls passed down through generations of Yanktonai Dakota women. Written by Standing Rock Sioux author Mona Susan Power\, this novel was longlisted for a national book award in 2023. Copies of the book are available at the front desk. The book club will be facilitated by Shelburne Museum’s Public Programs Educator\, Kat Redniss. \n
