Any artist displaying work at a public library will be required to sign a waiver releasing the library from responsibility for their art pieces. Hinesburg painter Rebecca Padula, who showed her work through the month of August at the Dorothy Alling Memorial Library, said she could envision a library patron mistakenly brushing up against a hung painting, causing it to fall and possibly get damaged. But — although the waiver does contemplate the possibility of theft — Padula never imagined that would actually happen. Museum staff followed the thief, recorded the license plate of her getaway car and called Police. The case is still under investigation. https://lnkd.in/gJ8Ep6zj
