Exhibitions
The Library recognizes that the arts are a distinguishing characteristic of our community’s identity. To support our community’s creative talents, we offer spaces that showcase local artists in a setting that invites connection and reflection.
Our Art Gallery is a canvas for established and emerging artists who work in an exciting range of styles and media. Come experience this month’s exhibit and discover a new artist, perspective, and source of pleasure. Works are on display on the Main Floor.
In addition to our monthly exhibitions, over the years the Library has acquired a collection of fine art. Selected pieces are on display in the Library.

PIECING US TOGETHER
Lions Gate Quilters’ Guild
September 10 – November 17
Over time, quilts have evolved beyond their practical uses. Today, they are celebrated for their artistic patterns and ability to convey social messages, commemorate special occasions, and reflect shared community experiences.
This exhibition, featuring 14 artists from the Lions Gate Quilters’ Guild, delves into the multifaceted nature of quilting. It highlights how the process of creating a quilt—through its repetitive and creative elements—serves as a form of meditation. For them, the focus on the artistic process can be as therapeutic as it is beautiful, offering a means to alleviate anxiety and foster mindfulness while celebrating the final artistic piece.
