Collection: Castro Valley Library & Castro Valley Creek

The Castro Valley Library is an important information hub as well as a multifaceted community center. The daylighting of the adjacent Castro Valley Creek restores a section of the watershed and creates more natural open spaces for recreation and education. There are five site-specific public artworks at the library and nearby creek as well as eleven framed artworks created by four Alameda County Artists. The Castro Valley Library opened in 2009.
