Paintings by local artist, Andrew Deiser

Now on view at Laman Library: After the Fire by local artist Andrew Deiser.
This moving exhibit features powerful works created before and after a catastrophic fire in March 2025 that destroyed Deiser’s studio and much of his artwork at the St. Joseph Center of Arkansas. Despite the loss, Deiser’s resilience and creativity shine through in every piece.
Come experience the beauty that rose from the ashes—on display through July 31 during regular library hours.
