The City of Walnut Creek, in conjunction with the Walnut Creek Downtown Library, is introducing a new program: Exhibitions in the Library Community Art Gallery. This new program is part of the Arts, Recreation and Community Services Department, which will administer it under the direction of the Walnut Creek Arts Commission.

As a proponent of creative expression and exploration, and to support appreciation of the visual arts, the Walnut Creek Library invites artists living or working in Contra Costa County to submit proposals for exhibitions in the Library Community Art Gallery. The Library Community Art Gallery was created to present artwork for the encouragement and development of artistic expression, and to foster greater appreciation for art in our community.
