Anne Walluk Community Room

We are thrilled to welcome artist Margaret Schuster to the Burlington Public Library! Margaret’s work will be on display in the Anne Walluk Community Room through November.

Raised on the family farm in Burlington, CT Margaret Schuster has been interested in art all her life.  She would dream of painting the farm and nature that surrounded her.  After a long career as an educator and naturalist, Margaret retired and began painting the things she loved including flowers, nature, landscapes and farm scenes. Margaret hopes to inspire others with the vibrant colors of pastels.

Margaret is primarily a pastel artist and has continued to improve her techniques taking workshops with such artists as Alain Picard, Liz Hayward-Sullivan and Laurinda O’Connor.  She is a board member of the Canton Artist’s Guild and has exhibited work at The New Britain Museum of Modern Art, The Gallery on the Green, CT Pastel Society Juried Show, The Art League of New Britain, Lost Acres Vineyard as well as other local wineries and libraries.  She has won awards for her pastels from the New Hartford Art League Juried show and the CT Pastel Society Juried Show.
