Arlo Monroe is Wardsboro Library’s Artist of the Month

WARDSBORO — The Wardsboro Library, 107 Main St., is hosting an exhibit of local artist and teacher Arlo Monroe during the month of March.

The Monroe family moved from Iowa to Wardsboro in 1931. Arlo Monroe's father had bought a 28-acre farm on what is now Main Street. The farmhouse is the present site of the Wardsboro Public Library.

His paintings are loaned by family and friends, and include familiar scenes of Wardsboro's past.

A reception for the artist will be held in the library on March 23 at 7 p.m. Regular library hours are Mondays and Thursdays, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.; Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 2 to 7 p.m.; and Saturdays, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
