The historical exhibition at Touchstones Nelson, Museum of Art and History took place from September 12 to November 22, 2020. It looked at the City’s earliest reading rooms, its many locations, ongoing challenges with space and funding, and changes through its journey to now—along with a glimpse into the future! You told us how you feel about the Nelson Public Library today, and how it might look tomorrow through interviews, creative writing, drawings, and cartoons, and you’ll see many of these reflected in our exhibition.
