The Tottenville Library presents Abrazo Argentina: Embracing a Culture, a collaborative art exhibit by Staten Island artists, Bruce Cohn, a photographer from the South Shore, and Denise Mumm, a painter/collagist from the North Shore. This project is made possible (in part) by an Encore Grant from Staten Island Arts, with public funding from the New York State Council on the Arts.

Large-scale paintings and photographs will be displayed in the soaring reading room of this historic library. Smaller work will be hung downstairs in the more intimate community room.
