A photographic exhibit featuring a number of Andover’s historic and picturesque barns is on display in the Andover Public Library on Main Street until the end of the year.

Featuring the work of local photographers, and organized by Pat Cutter and Paul Glorioso, the exhibit grew out of research for the Andover Historical Society’s 2013 fund-raising calendar, The Farms and Barns of Andover.

Library hours are Monday, 6:30 to 8:30 PM; Wednesday, 9 AM to noon and 6:30 to 8:30 PM; Thursday, 12:30 to 4:30 PM; and Saturday, 10 AM to noon. The calendar may be purchased for $10 by contacting the Andover Historical Society at 735-5628 or Pres@nullAndoverHistory.org.
