Hoboken Public Library
The Gallery


The art and history gallery of the Hoboken Public Library is located at the second floor vestibule. Local artists submit their work for review and those who are selected are provided with enough space to stage a one-person show of their work. Each artist's work is shown for a six week period.
The gallery is free to all visitors to the library. Also featured are monthly historical displays.

Picturing America Artwork
 

In honor of Native American Heritage Month the Hoboken Public Library will feature in our second floor vestibule gallery in November two prints of Native American inspired Artwork from our Picturing America Collection: George Catlin’s Catlin Painting the Portrait of Mah-to-toh-pah-Mandan 1861/1869 and  two plates from the “Sans Arc Lakota” Ledger Book, 1880-1881 by Black Hawk.  There will also be a display of books about Native Americans, information about the first inhabitants along the Hudson river, and Native American artwork and artifacts loaned by local Hoboken residents.
