Westport has a rich heritage as an artists' community, which continues today with a vibrant, local arts scene. Our goal is to honor this legacy by making the arts accessible to everyone.
Our three galleries of rotating exhibits provide visitors with the opportunity to experience original work by local artists. The Library's permanent art collection and ongoing arts programming further demonstrate our deep commitment to the local and regional arts community.
Featured exhibits change on a regular basis. If you would like to suggest an idea for an exhibit, please review the Exhibit Inquiry Guidelines.

Signs of the Times is an ongoing mixed media series by kHyal — unclassifiable, Rorschach-like work that tugs at perception and dares you to look closer. Built from objects reclaimed from dumpsters, flea markets, and the ocean, each piece explodes the flaws and foibles of a plastic society with raw, dazzling precision.

Flowers and furniture, here, aren't about beauty — they're about character: how a presence shapes a space, and how a space shapes it back. Every flower has an attitude and a reason according to Mari Gyorgyey.

Willful Alchemy is a collection of lumen prints born from 21 days of unhurried experimentation during a 2022 artist residency at Weir Farm National Park — camera-less, light-driven work made by rising early, setting compositions in the sun, and letting the process lead. The farm became both laboratory and sanctuary.
