The Adrian Public Library, located at 143 E. Maumee St. in town, opened a new exhibit Saturday which features artwork from Adrian College students. The Community Clay exhibit contains over 50 pieces of art from AC students of the fall class of 2009. Each work is a glazed surface made using different techniques such as raku, salt, wood and high fire reduction. A reception was held from 1-3 p.m. at the library for anyone interested in meeting the artists. The exhibit will last until Feb. 12 and spectators can view the works of art during regular library hours of 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays and 10 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. For parking, the library suggests the Toledo Parking Lot and on the street. Community clay classes are offered in the Art Department at AC during the fall, winter and spring semesters. Pi Benio, professor of art and design, organized the exhibit.
