Section 2-6 Art Exhibit and Display Case
The Amherst County Public Library provides limited space
for display of original works of art and crafts as well as
display of private collections. Such exhibits are encouraged
as a cultural expression of local community activity.
The use of the Library facilities for exhibits or displays
is not a right but a privilege which is subject to review
by an Exhibit Committee. This committee of library staff
and Friends of the Library must approve any art work or collection
before it can be displayed and will determine the most appropriate
location for the exhibit.
Collection displays or art exhibits may be shown at the
library for 30 day periods of time. An individual or group
may not reserve exhibit space more than 2 times in a calendar
year. The Library reserves the right to change, reschedule
or cancel exhibits when necessary.
Persons wishing to exhibit their work must submit the attached
application (Word format) to the Exhibit Committee through
the Library Director at least two months prior to the proposed
exhibit. No prices, sale notices or advertising other than
the artist's name, address and phone number may be affixed
to displayed items. Library staff may not act as intermediaries
in contacting artists.
The Library is not responsible for loss or damage incurred
while the exhibited items are in the library. All items placed
in the Library are placed there at the owner's risk.
