Cascade Public Library Cascade, Michigan ~ Visiting Sculpture Exhibit

The Cascade Public Library in Cascade, MI has a wonderful Bronze

 Sculpture Exhibit going on in the library now through October. 

Everywhere you look, there is a fantastic sculpture to view. Some are

 small, some are large, all are interesting.  Took the tour and snapped

 a few pictures so you could see this marvelous exhibit, too.  Reading was

 a large part of the theme but not all were about enjoying a good book.
