Art Exhibits
The library has a gallery area suitable for displaying framed or mounted art works. Exhibits in the gallery are scheduled and assembled by the art coordinator. Exhibits are scheduled several months in advance. Priority in scheduling is given to exhibiting the work of artists residing in Downers Grove or the surrounding area. The art coordinator is responsible for determining whether or not an artist's work is of a nature, format, and quality appropriate for the gallery area.
The work must be framed, mounted or otherwise prepared for hanging on the hooks available. The only exception to this will be displays of the work of local school children. No modification of the library facility will be permitted for the installation of an exhibit.
Prices of the art work may not be displayed in the exhibit. The library will not act as the artist's agent in the sale of his or her work. A list of the art work, including the price and the artist's telephone number, will be kept at the public service desks and will be provided to visitors at their request. All sales must be handled by the artist.
