North Bellmore Library Hosts Teen Art Show

On Tuesday night, the North Bellmore Library hosted their first Teen Art Show to display the creative works of local students.

Librarian Jessica Tymecki organized the event and selected pieces to showcase in the library's computer lab.

"I'm thrilled about the turn out," said Ms. Tymecki, who also had the difficult job of looking at every single piece that was submitted. "I only had space for 25 pieces, but as you can see, I chose 28."

Over 60 pieces were submitted into the art show. Most of the pieces chosen were completed by Mepham High School students. Christi Scoca, who had four pieces showcased, said her inspiration was "music."

"It's something everybody can relate to," she added.

Two other students said that their pieces were class projects.

Tymecki added that she hopes to have this become an annual show.
