Waterford Township Public Library
DIA Inside/Out - Waterford

  

DIA Inside/Out
Berenice Reproaching Ptolemy by Jean-Joseph Taillasson

Inside|Out, now in its third year, brings 80 reproductions of masterpieces from the DIA's collection to the streets and parks of metro Detroit. Six of these are now in Waterford, creating a grand, open-air gallery.

 

At the Library you can view the reproduction pictured here.  Waterford's enhancement to this program is to install reproductions of works by local artists at 5 additional locations. (Maps available at the Library.)

 

Free admission to the DIA for Waterford residents on Sunday, August 5, is part of our community's participation in this program. Hope to see you there!

LVW Voters
Voter's Guide Available

 

The League of Women Voters Oakland Area has a Voter Guides web page which covers all the various races and proposals of all Oakland County for the August 7, 2012 election.  They do not publish a paper guide for the August election, so to read their information you'll need to view it online.

 

Here are the parts of that voter guide which pertain to you as a Waterford resident.
