About the Artist
The Glitter Bombs
Tue, Aug 19, 7pm
A glittery blast, like a mouthful of Atomic Pop Rocks. Vibrant, energetic and super freak'n fun. The Glitter Bombs are a sparkling classic four piece, exploding out sugary, power pop gems. Fueled with powerful vocals, rhythmic grooves and ripping guitar solos.
“The group has an addicting rock/punk sound that is timeless, yet sounds like it comes from songs and bands of the same genres in the '80s and '90s.” - Salt Lake City Weekly
The Glendale Branch of the Salt Lake City Public Library system, designed by Architectural Nexus and opened in February of 2015, offers approximately 20,000 square feet of space, making it the largest City Library branch. The branch houses 40,000 circulating materials, public computers, a lounge area, a green screen room, and a grand piano donated through the Mundi Project.
The floor plan of the branch offers open views across the building while creating designated spaces for children's, teen, and adult Library collections. An enclosed activity room easily accommodates various Library programming, and a designated teen space offers a place for young adults to gather, study, and access Library resources and services.
Built with the Glendale neighborhood in mind, the building shape includes a curved form that reaches out and embraces the community while creating an outdoor plaza. Special colored concrete and landscaped designs represent the geographic area along the Jordan River, while the design scheme of interior signage incorporates colors and forms that represent the many ethnic backgrounds of Glendale neighborhood residents.
The branch is easily accessible to area students, being located just one block from Glendale Middle School, Mountain View Elementary School, and the Salt Lake City School District's Community Learning Center.
The diversity of building materials, finishes, and colors of the Glendale Branch reflect the diversity of the Glendale neighborhood, which is one of the most diverse communities in Salt Lake City.
