The Library as Incubator Project highlights the ways that libraries and artists can work together. The project periodically features artists who use libraries in the research, development, and/or promotion of their creative work.
I am featured this week, and there is an interview that talks about how I use libraries in developing my projects I am fortunate to have access to lots of different libraries in University Circle. This includes the Gund library at the Cleveland Institute of Art, the Eleanor Squire library at the Cleveland Botanical Gardens, and libraries at CASE Western Reserve university and at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. I always start project with research, and regularly check out books and visit libraries as part of my project development process.
The team behind the Library as Incubator project started this project to call attention to one of the reasons that libraries are important to our communities and culture.
