The Waltham Public Library was buzzing this spring as the WPS 2026 Districtwide Art Show opened its doors to the community Monday night. The art will be on display until April 30.
The exhibit showcases the creativity and talent of students from across the city’s schools, featuring a wide range of artwork including photography, paintings, drawings and sketches from elementary through high school students.
The opening reception included music and refreshments and attracted a curious crowd of families, teachers and community members. Students proudly discussed their inspirations and techniques while visitors admired hundreds of submissions on three floors of the library.
Each piece seems to tell its own story, from colorful abstracts to detailed depictions of nature, reflecting the diverse imagination of Waltham’s youth.
Now an annual event, the show includes art from all 11 schools — emphasizing the importance of arts education in the district — and provides a platform for students to share their work with the public.Visitors are encouraged to stop by the Waltham Library to enjoy the vibrant collection of student artwork. The library’s hours are Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
