Artist of the Month at CPL
As a center of community life, the Centerville Public Library encourages and supports civic, intellectual and cultural pursuits. The library invites local artists to display their work in the library front lobby for a one month showing.
Every month, patrons can visit the lobby in the front of the lobby and view a local artist’s exhibit. Some artists will have select pieces or prints available for purchase, and a portion of proceeds benefit the library.
Support CPL and local artists through this ongoing program!
Current Artist: Maureen Grandmont
July 2026
Come to the library to see Maureen’s current exhibit on pollinators!
Maureen was born in Connecticut and came to Massachusetts to attend college and never left. After 32 years of serving as a public school teacher, she retired to the Cape. As a juried member of the Cape Cod Art Center, and a Master Level Photographer in the CCAC camera club, and a member of the Plymouth Center for the Arts, her photographs have been recognized for their creativity and quality in competitions and international exhibits and have been used in advertisements and brochures.
From the Artist:
Behind the lens, I slow down and come in close to observe often missed details. Photography allows me to document the unseen and capture moments in time. Composing photographic images has become my way of connecting with the viewer on a soulful level.
If my images speak to you by stirring a memory, by creating a sense of wonder, or just by putting a smile on your face, then I have done my part in capturing a moment in time.
Maureen’s art will be on display in the front lobby for the month of July, with select pieces available for purchase. A portion of sales benefit the library.
