Explore the freedom of abstract art.
Abstract art is a visual expression that focuses on emotion, energy, colour and shape. Experiment with materials and ideas, using patterns, motion and texture to communicate mood or ideas without creating a literal image.
Work independently or follow a series of optional prompts. Perfect for anyone who wants to explore art in a judgment-free environment.
The first Hamilton Public Library building opened on September 16, 1890 by the Earl and Countess of Aberdeen on the north side of Main Street West. In 1913, a new main library opened. This building was replaced in 1980 by Central Library, at the current location on York Boulevard.
In 2010, Central Library re-opened after approximately 18 months of renovations. Central Library opened with a newly revitalized first floor, which includes a Community Living Room that takes advantage of natural light. The Ontario Library Association honoured Central in 2012 with an Architectural and Design Transformation award.
