Work currently being carried out on the building was being done to protect the building “for generations to come”, organisers from The Museum and Gallery Team at Cornerstone said.
The 121 figure has been chosen to represent the number of years since the library opened.
They will be painted at the Parish Hall on Kettering’s Market Place from 10:00 to 15:00 GMT, as part of the town’s Christmas Market.
They can be decorated in anyway.
“Maybe you just want to write your name – ‘Alf was ‘ere’ or ‘The East family 2025’?,” Cornerstone suggested.
“Your finished tile will become part of the Library’s roof and our town’s heritage.”
Each tile, roughly the size of a postcard, will be numbered and the designers name recorded.
“They will be laid facing down, but even though your artwork will be hidden from view, you will be told which tile is yours so that when the roof works are completed, you can point out your tile to friends and family,” it added.
Photos of each tile will then form a future exhibition in Alfred East Gallery.
