LED bulb and simple light bulbs.Green background

In collaboration with the Climate Action Collaborative, Vail Public Library invites all Eagle County residents to save money and cut climate pollution by exchanging two inefficient old-tech lightbulbs for two high-efficiency LEDs during the month of February, 2020.

Residents are encouraged to bring in two incandescent or compact-florescent bulbs and exchange them for two LED bulbs free of charge any time during library hours.

Switching to LED lighting is one of the easiest and lowest-cost ways to reduce air pollution.

Christina “Chrissy” Daniels, February 1st – 29th

My work is an expression of my love for all things in nature. Growing up in Idaho family time was outdoor time. Imprints of the land and wildlife made lasting impressions on me. I moved to Colorado in the summer of 2008 to work at Piney Lake where I immediately fell in love with the Gore Range; I have been circling away and looking over my shoulder at those peaks ever since. I express my feelings and emotions best with color, and there is no shortage of it in my work. I strive to balance all that color in my work by making sure I pay close attention to the value scale and rhythm of the piece. The current series that will be at the library in February is all acrylic and carving on 24” x 24” plywood.

Frida Kahlo used material culture to construct her identity — and material culture made her an icon in return. Join Alpine Arts & Vail Public Library in making your very own Self Portraits like Frida did. Each student would bring in a photo (or we can help you print one) to use in the frame and put images around that they identify with. This event is open to Teens &  Adults, make sure to RSVP to Sandy at srivera@vailgov.com or to 970-479-2331 as we have limited space.

Charles Broschinsky and Emily Zeigler have been performing chamber music in the Vail Valley for over 7 years. The Chamber Music Group tries to include a slightly eccentric mix of classical, baroque, romantic, and contemporary ensemble pieces in its repertoire, while tailoring its music to please anyone.

Emily, a retired lawyer, began playing the flute at 10 years old and is currently teaching in YouthPower365’s music program in the Avon Elementary School, a program that provides instruments and instruction to elementary school students.  Charles began playing the clarinet many years ago and has recently expanded his vision for expression through his music. He is also pastry chef at Juniper Restaurant.

The Chamber Music Group has performed at libraries, art shows, lectures and events throughout the Eagle Valley.
