We’re proud to showcase local creativity right here at the library! Our gallery features a rotating lineup of artists from Greensboro and the surrounding communities, with new exhibits each month. You’ll find all kinds of work – from painting and photography to fiber arts and more.

Most pieces are for sale, with a portion of the proceeds helping to support the library. It’s a great way to celebrate the arts and support both local artists and our community space.

Interested in sharing your work? We’d love to hear from you – just reach out!

We are pleased to welcome local artist Sally Cabell as our featured exhibitor this month.
