​ART EXHIBIT FUNDRAISER

The Keirstead estate generously donated a number of Stanley Keirstead's paintings to the library! Right now they are set up in different areas around the library.
Art shows are currently on hold until we are able to safely hold events again. Thank you for understanding.

Visiting Artist Program

The Visiting Artist Program is directed at raising funds, providing a venue for artists to display their works, and adding the visual dimension of art to the Library.

One or two artists will display works at the Library over a two-month period. Artists will provide eight to ten pieces of art, properly presented for display. Each artist agrees to donate a piece of art (print or original) to the Library for the Fundraiser. Each artist will, along with a Library Volunteer, assist with hanging and arranging the pieces of work at a mutually agreed upon date and time at the beginning of the two-month period. Artists will also assist with the removal of the art at a mutually agreed upon date and time. Should a Library patron express interest in buying a work on display they will be referred to the artist.

​Raffle tickets to win the donated artwork will be sold during the exhibit, and  a drawing will occur near the end of the exhibit. Raffle tickets will be available at the opening reception and at all times during library hours, at the front desk.
The Library reserves the right to de-select items not deemed appropriate for display in the Library.
Apply to become one of FPL's exhibitors.
