SPRUCE PINE â Amber Westall Briggs was delighted when The AMY regional library system was selected by the North Carolina Humanities Council last year as one of six sites in North Carolina to host âWater/Ways,â a Smithsonian Institution traveling exhibition. âThe idea behind the exhibition was not only to explore waterâs environmental and cultural impact, but also inspire residents to visit our own waterways and think about what it means to become better stewards of them,â Briggs said. Although Briggs was disappointed the exhibit was postponed because of Covid-19, she is excited to announce the colorful exhibit will open at the libraryâs Burnsville branch on March 13 and run through April 25.
