JONATHAN
TALBOT CREATES COLLAGE
In
the fall of 2000, artist Jonathan Talbot was commissioned by the Friends
of Middletown Thrall Library to create a collage celebrating the centennial
of the library. After a year-long process which included community input
meetings, meetings with students, and meetings with members of various
historical societies, the collage was completed, installed, and dedicated
on November 4, 2001. It is now on permanent display at the Middletown
Thrall Library in Middletown, NY. |

Getting the more-than-200-pound collage up on the wall required considerable effort. Garret Talbot (looking at camera), Thrall Library's head of maintenance Brad McGovern, and the artist rest after the job. Randy Enos, President of the Friends of Thrall Library also helped lift but is not pictured (he took the photo). |
