Monticello Kiwanis Welcomes Black Library Co-Founders

Posted

MONTICELLO – Douglas “DJ” Shindler and Michael Davis, artists, photographers  and co-founders of The Black Library, were very interesting and informative guest speakers at a recent Monticello Kiwanis Meeting. 

The Black Library is located at the former Key Bank Building at 418 Broadway in Monticello, and they welcome local residents and visitors of all backgrounds and  promote greater understanding of Black history and culture. They exhibit a diverse collection of works by Black authors, artists and designers and offer educational workshops for children and adults as well as hosting talks and community discussions. 

Everyone in attendance was very impressed with all the accomplishments of the Black Library during the short time it has been in existence and look forward to personally visiting and enjoying all  the exhibits and learning more about the Black History and Culture. The Monticello Kiwanis Club thanked the speakers and donated $200 in support of the Library’s continuing success.

The club meets the first Monday of the Month at 6:00 PM at Albella’s Restaurant in Monticello. Please check out their Monticello NY Kiwanis Club Facebook page to learn more about all their activities.
