Carnegie Picture Lab, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, has been serving youth in the Walla Walla Valley since 2010 by providing dynamic and innovative school and community-based art programs. The Columbia County Rural Library District has been serving residents of Dayton and the surrounding county since 1937, offering a wide variety of materials, resources, and services to meet the needs and interests of its patrons. Storybook Art is made possible by a grant to Carnegie Picture Lab from the Dayton/Columbia County Washington Fund administered by the Blue Mountain Community Foundation.
