Exhibit Space

There are 3 exhibit spaces available at the San Mateo Main Library:

• Main gallery - 1st floor meeting room hallway
• Exhibit Case - 2nd floor
• 3rd floor - Cafe walls & Teen Lounge

Selection Process
How often does the library select artwork?

• The library convenes a Library Art Selection Committee annually that includes representatives from the community, local artists and library staff.

What kind of art is selected?

• The Committee seeks art that represents the diversity of our community and varied artistic styles and mediums.
• Potential exhibitors must have a minimum of fifteen (15) pieces available to hang for the duration of an approximately 60 day exhibit period.
• Art pieces may be available for sale, but that is not a requirement for exhibiting.
