This March: Children’s Book Creators Who Embody “Art as Life, Life as art.”

Updated: Mar 24


Many artists including Keith Haring and Ai Weiwei have espoused the idea that art is life and life is art. This means that art is not only an essential way to express, reflect, and understand ourselves and others, but it is also an all-encompassing approach to living and appreciating the world around us.


Ruth Stiles Gannett, Ruth Chrisman Gannett, and Wanda Gág are three creators with exhibits at The Rabbit hOle who embody this philosophy. Progressive, creative, experimental, and accomplished women, each of them extended their artistic practice into all aspects of their lives — and their lives were intertwined with one another.


This month join us for Story Hours and adult programming to learn more about these creators and celebrate their inspiring legacies. 


Wanda Gág 1893-1946

Ruth Chrisman Gannett 1896-1979 & Ruth Stiles Gannett 1923-2024
