Art in the Library
The Library hosts monthly exhibits of local artists on the main floor of the library and regular arts programming. We accept applications from artists and groups who want to share their work with the Belchertown community.
The art exhibit hanging system for the Clapp Memorial Library was funded in part by a donation from members of the Quabbin Art Association and in part by the Friends of the Clapp Memorial Library.
Art Meets Poetry

Poets and writers are invited to view works on exhibit and compose a poem in response to one piece that calls to their literary talents.
