Current & Upcoming Exhibits
The gallery is located in the Library’s Lobby and is open during Library hours.
Heidi Andersen Watercolors
Thursday, Mar 20-Tuesday, May 13
The love of nature has inspired Heidi Andersen’s watercolor paintings for more than 20 years. Embracing the unpredictability of the medium, her fluid and water-saturated technique translates into spontaneous and expressive artwork. The use of bold colors adds vibrancy and energy to her visual expressions of flower and landscape themes.

The Gift of Art
The Friends of the Glenview Library have commissioned artwork for designated Library locations and have donated from their own collections. When you enter the Library from the underground garage, take notice of Field Scene. This colorful painting by David W. Voros was commissioned in 1986 to hang behind the Circulation Desk in the old Library. In the Community Room, the Navajo rug and two Native American portraits were gifts from the Louann Van Zelst family. The next time you attend a Library program, make sure to view these stunning works.
