A new book, “Reimagining Works,” features the 64 works of public art commissioned for the new Dayton Metro libraries to reflect the communities served across Montgomery County. It features a history of the Reimagining Works project, photos of both the museum artifacts and new art, and quotes from the artists. The “Reimagining Works” book can now be acquired through a donation of $50.00 or more to the Dayton Metro Library Foundation.
