There are several months available for one man art shows for 2010. Call now to schedule a month to display your art work!

The Benton County Library promotes cultural awareness through a myriad of activities including art shows, which began in 2002. Promoting local and other area artists, the gallery space provides amateur, as well as professional level artists, the opportunity to showcase their talents in a variety of artistic media.

There is an annual show which welcomes all artists to exhibit, and monthly one man shows, which allow individual artists to share their talent with the community.

Each year in September a theme is chosen and work is displayed during that month by many area artists. A reception is hosted one evening during the month by the library, to allow artists and art enthusiasts to mingle, and enjoy the display. Books on art and artists are featured to provide visitors the chance to learn more at home. The show is free and open to the public, and community attendance is encouraged. The library is very grateful to the Benton County Arts Council for their support of this program.
