A great gift to the library from our neighbors Ultimate Glass Art, Inc.

Artist Michael Ratulowski of donated this stunning stained glass book-themed lamp to the library. Michael told us he and his wife love coming to the River Forest Public Library. He enjoys sharing his art and thought this was the perfect place to do it. You can enjoy this piece next time you’re relaxing by our south side fireplaces upstairs. Thank you Michael!
