Programs & Exhibitions

Programs and exhibitions at PPL feature impactful, engaging community experiences and events.

Through cultural and educational programs, resources from special and historical collections, and artwork and curatorial projects led by locally based artists and practitioners, we are committed to building strong relationships to provide resources that bring creative work to scale, and make arts and cultural programming publicly accessible to the communities the Library serves.

I think public spaces in general are so important. And the Library tends to cultivate a safe space, along with being a public space. So being an artist coming into that kind of space, I feel very secure being able to show my work, talk to the public . . . everyone just wants to learn and grow together. And that's a really, really cool thing.
