Juan Tabo Art

Curious about the artwork outside the building? Called  "Once Upon a Storytime" it was created by the Mayor's Art Institute as a testament to the rich oral and written traditions of New Mexico. It includes imagery from more than 20 New Mexican Authors as well as a poem by an Albuquerque Poet Laureate. You can find more information about this and other Public Art at the Public Library here.

Inside, enjoy shifting exhibitions from local artists on our art wall.
