Everyone is welcome to view the Christmas trees set up in the Acheff Art Gallery in the Lake County Public Library located at 1919 W. 81st Avenue (US 30).
Each of the nine trees are creatively decorated by the employees of various branches of the library system representing specific themes. Designs include garland made from old encyclopedias, actual processing materials, noses put into books, fish and boats from a lakeside branch, miniature cross-stitch from craft classes, historical trains from a station branch, gingerbread men from program refreshments, and more. While you're there, take some time to view the original SouthShore poster artworks depicting life in Northwest Indiana.
The gallery is open from 2 to 4pm and 7 to 8pm Monday through Thursday, and from 2 to 4pm on Fridays and Saturdays now through December 23.
