Community Art Wall

Community Art Wall

The Community Art Wall is located at Brighouse Branch and spans the 1st floor stairwell and the 2nd floor Group Computer Zone. This collaborative display space is for community members to share their culture, stories and experience through art, facilitating cross-cultural exchange and community connection.

The art displays are featured on an eight-week rotation; come back regularly to see what’s new!
