Free art programs will begin at four area libraries beginning September 24. The Center for Community Arts and Cape May County Libraries welcome children ages 6 – 10 to listen to a story and create an art project. This fall’s schedule will explore popular children’s author/artists such as Eric Carle, (The Very Hungry Caterpillar), Denise Fleming (In the Tall, Tall Grass), and Leo Lionni (Frederick).
