Art & Music in the Gallery
Since 1901, the Lawrence Library has hosted art exhibitions and live music performances.
Art
The Gallery hosts a new exhibit every month.
Annual highlights are the Squanicook Colonial Quilt Guild show in the spring, and the student art show in the summer. In December, the Gallery transforms into a winter wonderland!

Free Concerts
Music events are held in the intimate, smoke-free environment of the
Art Gallery. Fantastic acoustics draw musicians and listeners from
throughout New England. All programs are free and open to the public. Coffee and light refreshments available. Funded by the Friends of the Library.
Donations for PACH, our local food pantry, are welcome at all of our music events.
YOU Are Jeff: a recital by Joe Clark and Alexander Nick
Joe Clark and Alexander Nick will be presenting the world premiere of
a new song cycle by Clark based on Richard Siken's poem "You Are Jeff".
They will also perform Debussy's "Petite Suite" for piano 4-hands.
Murphy-Clark Band
The Murphy-Clark Band is a lively and entertaining original music band based in Southern New Hampshire. Featuring exceptional singing, songwriting and musicianship, Murphy-Clark’s sound is reminiscent of Fleetwood Mac meeting R.E.M. for a jam on David Byrne’s back deck. Pull up a chair, sit back and enjoy!
Open Mic Nights
Open Mic Night is held each month on the 3rd Friday night (September through May), hosted by guest emcees. If you are interested in being an emcee, please contact Deb at email hidden; JavaScript is required. Join us!
