The use of the Library facilities for exhibits or displays is not a right but a privilege which is subject to review by an Exhibit Committee This committee of library staff persons must approve any art work or collection before it can be displayed and will determine the most appropriate location for the exhibit.

Persons wishing to exhibit their work must sign an Exhibit and/or Display Case Agreement. 

Collection displays or art exhibits may be shown at the library for no more than 60 day periods of time. An individual or group may not reserve exhibit space more than 2 times in a calendar year. The Library reserves the right to change, reschedule or cancel exhibits when necessary.
