Olive Free Library’s Exhibitions

PANDEMONIUM – 5th Annual Small Works Show

Nathalie Andrews and Elaine Ralston, curators of “PANDEMONIUM” have, together with other members of the Olive Free Library’s Exhibition Committee, put together a lively and varied exhibition of local and regional artworks, all limited to 12” x 12”, in many different media. The call for art resulted in 149 submissions of which 67 were chosen offering the community a great way to purchase works by local artists (within a 50-mile radius) at affordable prices, just in time for the holidays!

The Olive Library is also very excited about a fundraising effort during the Small Works Show: all Exhibition Committee members will be donating one of their own works to this exhibition. These artworks will be installed together on one wall in the Community Gallery and will be sold at only $100 each with 100% of the proceeds benefiting the Olive Free Library, a perfect holiday gift!
