The Michael Victor II Art Library serves the Springfield Art Association as a hub of inspiration, research and programs. Students in our classes extend their learning with our technique books and magazines covering topics from ceramics and jewelry-making to drawing and painting with many processes in between. Kids in our summer art camps enjoy exploring our selection of children's books that engage their curiosity and creativity. In addition to its holdings, the library hosts the Molly Schlich Film Series, a huge fall book sale in conjuction with the Edwards Place Fine Art Fair, and the Art History Happy Hour series. For more information, contact our Librarian, Barbie LaFrance, mvlibrary@springfieldart.org.

New Film Section!
The Michael Victor II Art Library is now home to over 30 books about film! Our library committee has collected countless recommendations from the same film gurus that assemble each year to pick out the lineup for our Molly Schlich Film Series! Patrons with or without a SAA membership are invited to sign up for a library card and check out our newest additions to our collection. Thank you to the following for their generous donations towards making our new film section possible! Craig Kniffin and Rachel Doctors Betsy Dollar |

Women Artist Donations Needed!
The Michael Victor II Art Library is home to 1000's of books about art but did you know that only a fraction of our collection is about women artists? We want to change that and there are two ways you can help! You can donate any books you already have that are about women artists or simply visit our wishlist on Amazon to purchase a book we already have our eyes on! It doesn't even need to be a new copy so feel free to shop for the best price! You may also request that we add the book to our collection in honor of a special someone and we will include it in the inside cover. Contact our librarian, Barbie LaFrance at mvlibrary@springfieldart.org if you have any questions. |
