This program will be held outdoors at the O'Neill Branch Library. In the event of inclement weather, this program will move indoors. 

Wear Your Resistance: Exploring Images of Protest

From the raised fist to the peace sign to the simple word "NO," symbols of protest have played a big role in protesting injustice and ushering in change. Learn about different images of resistance then choose one to make a t-shirt of your own.
