COLLIDER, the South Central Regional Library’s artist-in-residence program, connects the public with art and
the people who create it. Special studio space within the Library allows artists to create on-site.
Generous funding from Councilwoman Madonna Flood makes the COLLIDER Artist-In-Residence program
possible.
