All libraries will be closed Sept. 1st & 2nd for the Labor Day holiday. Some libraries may have altered Saturday hours. Please contact your local library to confirm hours before visiting. The Gates Public Library will close at 1 pm on Sat., Aug. 31st.
With the cancellation again of so many arts festivals this season, we offer this page as an alternative to view the works of our local artists. Take a tour of all the incredible regional artists and their creations and support our artists by purchasing directly from them. Come back frequently as new artists continue to be added. Artists, please click here to be included. ROC the arts!
