About the Artist of the Month Program: Artists, the library and the community at large have benefited from the Artist of the Month program for more than five years. The artist receives a place to display work, free promotion, and payment for any work sold, with a percentage of any sales benefiting the Library. The Library is supplied with lively and interesting décor, and the community benefits by being able to view new and interesting art made by artists working in the Falmouth area.
 
A wide array of mediums and subjects, including local landscapes, are featured. The public is invited to enjoy the exhibits during the Library’s regular open hours.
 
Any artist can request to be invited to be an Artist of the Month. Interested artists are directed to contact Anne Torry-Ballou by email at anne.t.ballou@gmail.com.
