Roots mirror our own lineage with ancestry, memory, and the invisible networks that sustain us. As a child, she saw bodies in trees: torsos rising from the soil, limbs reaching skyward, trunks entwined in struggle and embrace. Mann paints from the living forest, still lifes with animal bones, and imagined landscapes. Together, these elements form a vision of the forest as a living archive, where generations intertwine and hold stories of growth, conflict, resilience, and shared survival beneath the surface.<\/p>\n<p>Mary Mann is a Tacoma-based public mural artist and studio painter. <em>Roots + Bones<\/em> will be on display at the Miller Library April 2-27. You can meet the artist during the 2026 Garden Lovers\u2019 Book Sale April 10 and 11.<\/p>\n<div class=\"xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Top Resources<\/h2>\n<div  class=\"grid row equal   \" >\n<div  class=\"col\">\n<div  class=\"card text-left no-image lightgold \" style=\"width:100%\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<h2 class=\"card-title mb-0\">Plant Answer Line<\/h2>\n<div class=\"udub-slant-divider\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"card-content\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/millerlibrary.libanswers.com\/form?queue_id=7430\" class=\"btn btn-lg arrow white\"><span>Ask Us a Question<\/span><span class=\"arrow-box\"><span class=\"arrow\"><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"col\">\n<div  class=\"card text-left no-image lightgold \" style=\"width:100%\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<h2 class=\"card-title mb-0\">Gardening Answers Knowledgebase<\/h2>\n<div class=\"udub-slant-divider\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"card-content\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/hortlib\/gardening-answers-knowledgebase\/\" class=\"btn btn-lg arrow white\"><span>Learn Something New<\/span><span class=\"arrow-box\"><span class=\"arrow\"><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"grid row equal   \" >\n<div  class=\"col\">\n<div  class=\"card text-left no-image lightgold \" style=\"width:100%\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<h2 class=\"card-title mb-0\">Garden Tours &amp; Plant Sales<\/h2>\n<div class=\"udub-slant-divider\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"card-content\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/millerlibrary.libcal.com\/calendar\/garden-tours-plant-sales\" class=\"btn btn-lg arrow white\"><span>Find Local Events<\/span><span class=\"arrow-box\"><span class=\"arrow\"><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"col\">\n<div  class=\"card text-left no-image lightgold \" style=\"width:100%\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<h2 class=\"card-title mb-0\">Miller Library Program Room<\/h2>\n<div class=\"udub-slant-divider\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"card-content\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/millerlibrary.libcal.com\/reserve\/spaces\/program-room\" class=\"btn btn-lg arrow white\"><span>Reserve the Space<\/span><span class=\"arrow-box\"><span class=\"arrow\"><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Visit Us<\/h2>\n<p>Open to everyone. <a href=\"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/hortlib\/hours-and-contacts\/\">Open hours<\/a>.<br \/>\n<strong>Address<\/strong>: 3501 NE 41st St., Seattle, WA, 98105<br \/>\n<strong>Location<\/strong>: Center for Urban Horticulture. <a href=\"http:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/uwbg\/docs\/CUHGroundsmap2011.pdf\">CUH Map<\/a>.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-663 fb-icon\" src=\"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/hortlib\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/FB_icon30px.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ElisabethCMillerLibrary\/\">@ElisabethCMillerLibrary<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Contact Us<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hortlib.kohacatalog.com\/cgi-bin\/koha\/opac-user.pl\">Your Library Account<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<strong>Email<\/strong>: <a href=\"mailto:hortlib@uw.edu\">hortlib@uw.edu<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Plant Answer Line<\/strong>: 206-897-5268\u00a0\u00a0<strong>General Questions<\/strong>: 206-543-0415<\/p>\n<p>We are currently NOT accepting donations of gardening books and magazines in good condition.
