Throughout the month of April, the Lucy Robbins Welles Library in Newington will host an exhibit of photographs by Newington resident Sue Fenton – the exhibit is entitled “Photopressions.” The photographs may be viewed in the Community Room during regular library hours throughout the month when the room is not being used for a program. The artist will host a reception, Saturday, April 13, from 2 – 4 p.m. and the public is invited to attend. Refreshments will be served. Artistic since childhood, Sue minored in art history in college and spent many summers living in Paris, taking short trips around Europe, and soaking up the arts. In 2009, she picked up a digital camera and sparked a new passion. Fascinated by all kinds of photography from landscape to portraits, light painting and street photography, she also loves to do photo art. Her interests include composition, analysis, and self-expression through photography.
