“Our library is a place for stories in every form,” Westfield Library Foundation Executive Director Erin Downey said. “Featuring student artwork celebrates imagination, builds confidence, and reminds our young artists that their creativity is an important part of this community.”

The exhibit will remain on display throughout March for the community to enjoy.
