Grant Success Story: Hartford Public Library


The Hartford Public Library is having standing-room-only success with its LSTA-funded program for older adults, Arts and Archives: Master Classes in the Arts and Humanities.

Coordinator Brenda Miller took time for a little Q&A recently so that some of the project's best practices could shine. This is a replicable program that stimulates the creative and artistic talents of patrons and which can be scaled to any size library in a variety of ways.

The story is located right here on the Grant Success Stories page of WebJunction Connecticut.

LSTA stands for Library Services and Technology Act, funding distributed by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the primary source of federal support for the nation’s 123,000 libraries and 17,500 museums. The Institute's mission is to create strong libraries and museums that connect people to information and ideas.
