elect_camera Art Exhibit     Tell a Friend
    Photography "Flowers of Eastwood" by Marlon Henn will be on display throughout February. Mr. Henn's work stems from his travels through Eastwood when he noticed different flowers being grown at various houses. He notes that some floral displays were extensive and some properties only had one or two flowers in bloom. Photos encompass a 9 square block area from North of James and West of Midler. So much work has been done by propery owners that he felt he should share the beauty with others.
After being displayed at the library, the photos can be viewed at the Palace Theater. http://www.onlib.org
