The Library is Open celebrates the intersection of visual art, writing, community, and free speech through the book. Building on the Depot Gallery’s existing collection of works by local writers, the exhibition will transform the space into a vibrant reading room and creative hub, expanding the bookshelves to include artist books by local, regional, and national book artists, as well as 2D works such as prints that explore themes of reading, storytelling, typography, and the book as object.
