Library Displays & Exhibits

We have a variety of opportunities for community involvement in displays and exhibits.

Interested in an exhibit opportunity?

We love to showcase month-long exhibits in our glass display case. The case is equipped with LED lights, five shelves, locking doors, and a variety of museum-quality display accessories. Find details about measurements and accessories here. The case is located in the breezeway off of our Pine Street entrance. An application to exhibit is below.

We also have limited space on top of bookshelves, on walls and bulletin boards. Just ask us about your ideas for an exhibit.

Interested in participating in Sherwood Old Town Art Walk?

The Library is a stop in this creative and family-friendly tradition. We welcome ideas to collaborate. We often host craft events, performances, and showcases.

Review our policy and submit an application, below, for consideration. Or, contact Adrienne Doman Calkins, Library Manager, to get the conversation started via email or at 503-625-4272.
