Art Collection

The goal of the exhibition space located in the Town Hall Library is to provide a showcase for local artists to display their works and to create a pleasing environment for patrons and staff.  Shows change regularly. 

The criteria by which exhibits are approved include:

• Content that complements the mission and service philosophy of the Library
• Subject, technique, and style suitable for the intended audience
• Artistic expression
• Historical or regional relevance
• Relationship to other events or exhibits in the community or the library
• Ability to display in designated areas and space allowances; and
• Significance of the contributor.

Displays intended to further a political agenda will not be permitted. The opportunity to exhibit work at the Town Hall Library is open to any artist living in Wisconsin. Preference is given first to Waukesha County residents and, in particular, those who live in the Town of Merton. Artists interested in having their work displayed should visit the Library to determine if their work is a good match for the space available.
