Dan Christoffel has become one of LI's most recognized historical artists. He combines both his passion for history and his talent as a representational painter to create not just portraits but historical stories. He will share his perspective on Abraham Lincoln, a subject he has explored in his paintings since 1976. The presentation includes not only the artist's own work but slides from his extensive collection of Lincoln photographs. Don't miss the opportunity to study Christoffel's work more closely. He will be the featured artist in their gallery for the month of February.
Held in the Auditorium.
In the event of a large turnout, POB residents with photo ID will be admitted first, others as space permits.

More About Plainview Old Bethpage Public Library
The Plainview Old Bethpage Public Library provides the residents of the Plainview Old Bethpage School District with a broad range of information resources.
The library was authorized by voters in 1955 and soon after co-occupied the school library at the Jamaica Avenue School for two years. In 1957, the library moved to rented stores in the Morton Village Shopping Center. It remained there until the new building, across the street at 999 Country Road, was opened in 1963.
There are also many cultural enrichment programs, as well as free WiFi. In recent years a state-of-the-art auditorium has been added, providing a great venue for public meetings and a wide array of free cultural offerings.
There are thousands of volumes in the library, including documents on local history.
There are copiers, fax machines and computers available for public use.
