Community Art Exhibition 

The public library is to serve as a shared space and community resource.

The Walter E. Olson Memorial Library (OML) strives to provide welcoming public spaces, such as the community art exhibition located in the Community Room.

The exhibition wall uses Walker art rail and rod systems (2 display sections, 20′ x 18′) and track lighting for illumination.
