The shows will be on display in a public area of the Jamaica Plain Branch Library on South Street, and an accompanying reception will be organized by Uforge, the managing partner on behalf of the Friends.
Submission is free. Digital packets must be received by 5 pm on Friday, October 11, 2019. Physical/in-person submissions will not be accepted. For more information about the materials required, please go to http://www.friendsjplibrary.
