After an initial tour of the art on the 1st Floor of the Walnut Creek library, I decided to waylay the 2nd floor coverage until a later date. But since the 1% budget requirement for Public Art on new construction also applies to government buildings, I was intrigued to see what else had been done with public funds and decided to finish the tour sooner than later.

There are many retreats also available in the Black Oak, Blue Oak and Live Oak Rooms providing enjoyment of the quietude.
