Library seeks applicants for artists to exhibit
The Kennebunk Free Library is accepting applications for artists to exhibit a variety of mediums during the 2019 calendar year at the Speers Gallery (formerly Hank’s Room).
The application process is open to individual or group shows. Those applications will compete in a juried review conducted by an art committee consisting of members from the library and art communities. Upon completion of the review, applicants will be contacted regarding the committee’s decisions.
Application forms are available at the library or by visiting the library’s website www.kennebunklibrary.org. They must be received by Oct. 15.
The offering of monthly artist exhibits allows the Kennebunk Free Library to serve the diverse cultural, informational, educational, and recreational needs of the community. The library is proud to have showcased the many talented artists who have previously exhibited and is looking forward to continuing this tradition with the 2019 exhibit schedule.
