Due to the Virus concerns and closing of the Chicopee Public Library,
the FCPL Art Committee will be mailing all Awards to winners directly,
and will notify all participating Artists about when they can retrieve
their artwork after we are informed about when we will have
access to the Library once again. In the mean time, all
art remains safely in the Library until further notice.
For a list of winners, please see the Fine Arts page.
Thank You.
