Show Your Artwork

As the days grow longer and the warmth of the season returns, the West Lincoln Public Library invites local artists to participate in our upcoming seasonal art exhibition: "Endless Summer." Running from June through August 2026, this show celebrates the color, energy, and timeless spirit of summer—those golden days that seem to last forever.

We welcome original submissions in all visual media—drawings, paintings, photography, or mixed media—that capture the essence of the season. Whether you’re inspired by sunlit landscapes, blooming gardens, summer skies, or cherished moments of leisure and light, this is your opportunity to share your vision with the community.

Selected pieces will be displayed throughout the library, bringing warmth, vibrancy, and joy to patrons all summer long.

Submissions will be reviewed regularly, standard display periods will be 3 months. Artists applying to exhibit are encouraged to be familiar with the layout, lighting, and method of hanging. Art must be prepared for proper hanging upon delivery.

* The Library does not pay exhibit fees. The Library does not charge commission on sales nor act as an intermediary for sales. Patrons interested in purchasing art will contact the artist directly. Exhibitors are responsible for obtaining their own damage insurance for the contents of their exhibit.
