A tradition for more than a century, Gallery 53’s Annual Fall Art Exhibit returns for its 102nd year, showcasing artists from across New England and beyond. This long-standing exhibit features an eclectic collection of artwork representing a wide range of media, techniques, and artistic styles.
|
In recognition of the 250th anniversary of the United States, this year’s exhibit will include a special focus on works that reflect the American story—our rich and diverse culture, our storied history, our magnificent landscapes, and the resilience and spirit of the American people. While entries are not required to address this theme, special awards will be presented to honor outstanding works that do.
