Community Display Cases and Art Exhibit Spaces Guidelines

Community Display Cases and Art Exhibit Spaces Guidelines

Sno-Isle Libraries welcomes displays and art exhibits of general community interest. This includes community display cases and all designated art exhibit areas. 

 Sno Isle Libraries does not advocate or endorse the content, format, or viewpoints of exhibits or displays.

  • The library community display cases and art exhibit areas are open to organizations or individuals engaged in civic, cultural, artistic, or educational activities. Commercial endeavors, political or religious statements, are generally not permitted.
  • All materials exhibited in the library are subject to approval by the library manager or designee. The library manager reserves the right to refuse a community display or art exhibit.
  • The exhibition period is based on space and availability. Exhibitors are required to hang or display their own items and to remove them at the agreed date and time. Exhibitors are required to display the exhibit sponsor or artist as part of the display.
  • The library assumes no responsibility for possible damage or theft of any exhibited items placed in the library. All items placed in the library are done so at the exhibitor’s risk and the exhibitor shall, upon making the display, automatically release all claims against and hold the Library and Sno-Isle Regional Library harmless from any and all claims arising from damage or theft.
  • All exhibitors must complete the release form
  • Artists may display contact information such as business cards, bookmarks, or brochures.
  • Wall labels or signage may include the name, title, and medium. No sales will happen at the library, and the labels or signage should not include prices. Artists are welcome to include a website address or a QR code to connect potential buyers with this information. Sales of artwork are not handled in any way by library staff. Potential buyers may contact the artist. No commission or entry fees are required. Artists will not receive compensation from Sno-Isle Libraries for artwork exhibited at the library.

Staff will then add the name of the person you are authorizing to pick up holds to your account. The holds will always be checked out on the account of the person picking up the items.

    The Sno-Isle Libraries App can also manage up to eight accounts and supports self-checkout.
