The Olney Community Library & Art Center [OCLAC] hosted its 46th annual pet show to the delight of the children and the community.

The event included live pets and stuffed animal pets, Mo Cones serving icy treats, the Stewart family’s horses, face painting, temporary tattoos, an inside art drawing station.

A children’s book author read from his books and signed autographs and handed out free copies of one of his children’s books.

The event was, as always, a wonderfully entertaining summer treat.
