Artwork Available for Purchase

Many works of art in this exhibition may be purchased directly from the artist; ask at the front desk for contact information. NOLS does not take a commission. All artwork will remain on view until the exhibition concludes, after which the library will return the work to the artist. The artist will then arrange pickup with the purchaser.

Opening Reception

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the opening reception on Friday, November 14, 2025. We enjoyed classical music performed by Tamara Rotz (flute/violin), Sung-Ling Hsu (viola), and Pamela Roberts (cello) while celebrating the artists.


Support for Art in the Library exhibitions comes from the Port Angeles Friends of the Library.
