Teen Library Art Wall

The Teen Library Art Wall is a space for local artists to display work made by teens or art with teen appeal. The gallery began with teens requesting “more art in the space!” and was installed in 2023. It is meant to be ever-changing, showcasing the many talented creators across Portland while adding vibrancy to the space.

CURRENT EXHIBIT: CASCO BAY HIGH SCHOOL ART EXHIBIT

Casco Bay High School student artwork on display in the teen library

Currently on display in the Teen Library, this fresh exhibit from students at Casco Bay HighSchool explores the history of slavery and abolition in the Atlantic World. Following their research and literary analysis, students created art in unique frames, inspired by the sculptural work of Louise Nevelson, that tells a visual story in oil pastel.

We welcome the community to submit art for this hanging gallery. If you or your organization are interested in displaying art in the Teen Space, please email Sara Fiorenza, the Teen Librarian, directly at: Fiorenza@portlib.org.
