WPL welcomes local artists to exhibit their work and community groups to present their organizations in the Arts & Culture Center, located on the first floor of the library.
The purpose of the Arts and Culture Center is to introduce local and regional artists to the public as well as a serve as an informational display space for community partners or upcoming events.
Terry Walsh
I have been a professional artist for over 52 years. I paint full time, almost every day, in my studio in Lombard or in my studio in Michigan's Upper Peninsula along the same shoreline I enjoyed as a kid.
I hope my work allows viewers the opportunity to emotionally engage with the physical world and maybe find beauty and majesty in seemingly mundane facets of God's creation, as much as in the obviously glorious ones.

Needles in the Bookstacks in partnership with Fox Valley Knitters Guild meets in the Arts & Culture Center every Saturday from 9 am - 1 pm.
