September's Exhibit
Jenny Marcano


Stop by the library during September to view artwork by Southbridge resident Jenny Marcano!

A little about Jenny and her artwork:

           "My earliest memory of drawing was that of a unicorn that I'd scribbled on a piece of computer paper.  I gingerly dragged a line of glue along the pencil outline of the creature and then sprinkled golden glitter over the entire paper, to be sure that lots of itAngel of Music stuck to the glue lines.  I let it all dry and waited with my mother and baby brother for my father to come back from work.  When he did I gave him the piece of art with childish enthusiasm, to this day he still has that unicorn in his office cubical.

            My name is Jenny Marcano, I’m seventeen years old, of Puerto Rican decent, and was born and raised in this town of Southbridge. I have been taking private art classes taught by the inspirational Kathleen Coggins at her home business of Wild Vine Studios for the past nine years. From then on my passion was in creation, and with the support of my parents, mentors, and friends I’ve been able to grow and shape myself as an artist.

This year I will be becoming a senior at Bay Path Regional Vocational Technical High School and will be graduating from the Graphics Communications program that they provide. Though graphic design isn’t the road I wish to travel I am very glad I have been able to gain experience with the wondrous technology that has been invented for art and design.

This will be a huge year for me as I further improve my portfolio so that I can go to college for animation. I am truly blessed for the foundation of people I have who support my dreams and want me to become successful. I hope that you all enjoy my art show, and that you work hard for your dreams, and support the dreams of your loved ones."


The exhibit will be on display for the month of September, with a reception feature live music by local band Son D' Plena, on Thursday, September 2nd at 6:30 p.m.
