The Library Program Committee is planning a series of Friday night events for the Fall and Winter.

At 8 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 8 John Beardsley will inaugurate the series with a talk, illustrated with slides, about his recently published book, Gardens of Revelation: Environments by Visionary Artists.

This book shows and discusses a number of landscape constructions in the U.S., India, France and South Africa. The artists who made them, Mr. Beardsley says, “To greater or lesser degrees are all somewhat disenfranchised: marginalized by race or ethnicity, isolated by geography or culture, or deprived of economic and social status...Viewed as exceptional but peculiar, they were often isolated but eager to communicate.”
