It’s here! The 2020 Teen Art Show is now up in the library and live on the Teen website. Despite the pandemic, we received wonderful art submissions for this year’s show, and I am (as usual) thrilled with our showcase.

To view the show, visit the Digital Teen Art Show page or give us a quick call at 715-839-5007 to make a browsing appointment to come into the library. The physical pieces are hanging in the 1st Floor Gallery, right next to the Teen Lounge. The show runs September 15 through October 31.
