At our June Literary Salon, First Edition members enjoyed the stories of British garden historian Andrea Wulf and had the opportunity to bid on six unique works of art created by Billy Renkl especially for the Nashville Public Library Foundation. Many have seen these works of art on postcards from the Foundation, inviting your support.
NPLF still has a couple prints available for purchase!
All proceeds benefit the Nashville Public Library.
Contact Tari Hughes to inquire about available prints via email or call 615-880-2610.
