Each month, the library offers a new art exhibit for patrons to browse, in our hallway and on the east and west walls of our Meeting Room. Drop in any time during opening hours to see the work of artists in our community. If you are a local artist wishing to exhibit, please see the guidelines below:
This Month in the Gallery:
-
Frank Bartlett Sr.
In the hallway and Meeting Room galleries from June 2nd through June 30th, 2026
We invite you to step into the wild through an exhibition featuring more than 100 canvases and framed photos that showcase the incredible wildlife living right among us. Frank brings viewers closer to nature by capturing local animals in rare poses within their natural habitats. Whether you are a photography buff, a local resident, or looking for a wonderful, educational outing for the whole family, this free show offers an inspiring experience for everyone. Each piece—ranging from 8″x10″ prints up to grand 16″x48″ statement panoramas—is paired with a storyteller placard packed with fun wildlife facts!
SAVE THE DATE: Artist reception on June 10th from 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM at the Guilford Free Library, 67 Park Street. Bring your friends, your curiosity, and your love for the outdoors. Enjoy light refreshments and chat with the artist behind the lens! We can’t wait to see you and your friends here on June 10th.
