Displays & Exhibitions: Propose an Exhibition in the Library

We are not currently accepting submissions for new exhibits. Our next anticipated exhibit proposal process will be for winter quarter of 2026. We will adjust the information on this page and send out notices via email and social media when the submission process re-opens.

Questions? Reach out to libraryhelp@evergreen.edu.

The information provided below is for reference as you plan your proposal.

Evergreen Library Exhibition Proposal Form: https://evergreen.libwizard.com/f/propose-exhibition

Some criteria we use to evaluate exhibit proposals include:

• Connection to curriculum (including work by current Evergreen students)
• Connection to events and other arts activities happening at Evergreen
• Diversity & inclusion (i.e., would this display represent/explore/speak from multiple or traditionally underrepresented perspectives)
• Relevance to Olympia community (or wider PNW community)
• Compatibility with current display resources (i.e., do we have to buy anything to make it work?)
• Interest (i.e., ability to interact, relevance to current events, visual interest, of a wide-ranging topic or different than other exhibits we have hosted)

Types of display cases available for use:

• 2 medium silver cases measuring 60"x24"x36" with 2 glass shelves
• 2 tall silver cases measuring 60"x24"x72"
• 1 wooden horizontal case measuring 68"x24"x9"

Optional additional cases (if exhibit needs more space):

• 2 small wooden cases measuring 32"x24"x28" with 1 shelf
• 1 black horizontal case measuring 60"x30"x8"
• 1 silver horizontal case measuring 50"x26"x13"
