It's Magic, This World (Pasadena Library)

EXHIBIT: It's Magic, This World.

The Eaton Fire hit three foothill cities

Art, Nature, and Sustainability by Katie Savoy is an installation that continues through Sunday, August 31, 2025, at the Hastings Branch Library.

Art, Nature, and Sustainability is inspired by Southern California's landscapes. Katie Savoy finds magic painting Nature's hidden details, from flowers to mountain views. The art, including abstract explorations of texture and fluidity, is a constant journey of growth and therapy.

She's committed to sustainability, sourcing all materials secondhand and repurposing every piece. Her hope is to share this peace and calm with Los Angeles. More info

Stronger Together: A Collaborative Puzzle Mural

Ongoing through Saturday, July 26, 2025: A colorful abstract with pencils and paintbrushes and the word ART. Each of us is a “piece” of what makes the library special! Help create a puzzle mural by decorating your own puzzle piece during this year’s Summer Reading.

Individual pieces will become part of a larger mural that will be unveiled during our End of Summer Bash on Saturday, August 2nd at Jefferson Branch Library. Designs can be about anything related to the library – a favorite book or favorite book character, or something that makes one think of the Pasadena community.]

How to Join: Pick up a puzzle piece at any Pasadena Public Library location starting Saturday, June 14th. Return decorated puzzle piece by Saturday, July 26th to be added to the mural.

Questions? Ask Marie Plug at mplug@cityofpasadena.net. We can’t wait to see what contributors create. Let’s make something awesome together!
