The program, at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 22, in Library Room 108, is free and open to the public.

A professional artist whose medium of choice is watercolor, Lewis has illustrated many notable books, including “Talkin’ About Bessie: The Story of Aviator Elizabeth Coleman,” for which he won the Coretta Scott King Illustrator Award, and “Coming on Home Soon,” which was named a Caldecott Honor Book this year.

The presentation will be followed by a book-signing.
