  • SPLASH! 2023

SPLASH! 2023

In this 400th year of Portsmouth celebration, SPLASH!, a celebration of youth art month, will again grace the walls of the Levenson Community Room and all the walls of the Library. We are pleased to exhibit this collection of original art created by Portsmouth's youth, so stop by to explore the show which is on display from March 11 through April 27.

This exhibit will feature a wide array of stunning creations that showcase the innovative, inspiring minds of our Visual Arts students from grades K-12. The Portsmouth Public Library will come alive with art from Dondero, Little Harbour, New Franklin as well as the Portsmouth Middle and High Schools. Come feast your eyes on this dazzling display of two- and three-dimensional artwork which will be featured in the Levenson Community Meeting room and throughout the library. 

This is both a culmination of work since the beginning of the school year as well as a celebration of Youth Art Month. The artwork, hung by art educators of the Portsmouth School Department as well as library staff, varies in style, medium, and materials. Works will range from tiny to gigantic, including collages, mobiles, weavings, ceramics, sculpture, and photography. You will see paintings and drawings done from observation and inspired by artists in a variety of mediums plus much, much more!

Please join us to meet the artists at the reception on Sunday, April 2 from 2 until 4 PM! Refreshments will be provided.
