As a lifelong creative, it took Althea decades to understand her own creativity and flow. Going months without creating would leave her feeling blocked and frustrated, wondering if she was, in fact, an artist at all. Now a professional artist who has earned tens of thousands from her work, she has developed a new approach and understanding of her creativity and process.

Come join a community of creatives as you learn more about yourself and your passion.

About the branch

Local artist Woodrow Nash created two murals for the Odom Boulevard Branch Library, celebrating the lives and ideas of African-American leaders and pioneers—Martin Luther King, Jr., Frederick Douglass, Malcolm X, Sojourner Truth, Helen Arnold, Ed Davis, Shirla McClain, Martin Chapman, Horace Stewart, and Vernon Odom. Odom Boulevard Branch Library's extensive collection of African-American fiction, non-fiction, gospel music, and more also celebrates the contribution of African-American writers and artists. Additionally, the shelves of the branch contain a large collection of religious and spiritual titles, and the best of contemporary fiction and non-fiction genres.

Odom Boulevard Branch Library is a destination place for the community. Computers and computer classes, WiFi printing, scanning, copying, and faxing are services important to all, including emerging entrepreneurs and returning students. Programming affords customers of all ages an opportunity to learn through exploration in community with others. Odom Boulevard Branch Library is a one-stop spot for the educational and entertainment interests of all of its neighbors.
