Art at The Library
Westport has a rich heritage as an artists' community, which continues today. The Westport Library endeavors to honor this legacy through a series of rotating art exhibits.
Current Exhibits: Building Bridges Through Storytelling, a multi-gallery quilting exhibition. Like a patchwork quilt itself, the show will weave together three distinct yet interconnected exhibits — each exploring how art and narrative bind communities across generations and geographies.
