OLD LYME — The New England Landscape exhibition featuring works by Lyme Art Association (LAA) Member Artists is currently on view at the LAA.
This annual exhibition celebrates the rich and varied beauty of the East Coast. From autumn leaves to summer trees and lonely roads to rolling hills, LAA member artists visually explored their connection to this land. Gallery visitors will experience the artwork on display through an array of mediums, which acknowledge New England’s many moods and views.
Running concurrently is Connecticut Pastel Society’s Renaissance in Pastel. The Connecticut Pastel Society is a fine arts organization that draws awareness to pastel as an artistic medium. The Society’s annual national show celebrating the beauty of pastel is on view in the LAA’s gallery.
Also, on view from Oct. 16—24 is the Plein Air Art Group Show. Throughout the spring and summer, LAA’s Plein Air Painting Group painted in and around Old Lyme and their pieces capturing the town’s beauty will be on display in this show for visitors.
New England Landscape and the Connecticut Pastel Society’s Renaissance in Pastel are on view from Sept. 13 – Oct. 24.
New England Landscape is supported by Guilford Savings Bank in partnership with the Community Foundation of Middlesex County.
Founded in 1914 by the American Impressionists, the LAA continues the tradition of exhibiting and selling representational artwork by its members and invited artists, as well as offering art instruction, lectures, and other public programs to the community.
