X MARKS THE SPOT

The Blackstone Library is thrilled to be part of THE EXCHANGE, a statewide art treasure hunt happening from now until November 1! 

CLICK HERE for an interactive map, GPS coordinates, and video clues from all of the artists — OR — visit our lobby to learn more about the art installation being featured right here at the library!

It's called HEROICALLY FOUND and in it, local author and artist Jen Payne considers: “How do we find equilibrium when all seems lost?” Just follow the clues

Heroically Found is something Harvey Danger wants to do in Flagpole Sitta.

You’ll find it at architect Solon Spencer Beman’s Branford connection.

It’s a place that Beverly Cleary, Ben Franklin, and Marcel Duchamp have in common.

While GPS finds the place, Melvil Dewey marks the spot.

William Butler Yeats must be heroically found OR visit the display table in the lower lobby for a final clue.

BONUS!

In October, look for FREE copies of HEROICALLY FOUND hidden in THE EXCHANGE treasure box AND throughout the library. X marks the spot!
