TJ Daring’s acrylic art exhibit is made up of 12 works which feature colorful impressions of mountains, trees and a lot of skies. “It’s very colorful,” says TJ. The exhibit opened in the Fraser Valley Library Community Room on July 18th and runs through August 28th. The library opens Tuesday – Saturday at 10 am.
