Summer in New England

30 award-winning artists including Carol Arnold, Del-Bourree Bach, Paul Batch, Paul Beebe, Zufar Bikbov, Kelly Birkenruth, Steve Brennan, Deborah Chabrian, Grace DeVito, David Dunlop, Sue Gilkey, Neal Hughes, Tom Hughes, Susan Jositas, Tom Glover, Laurie Flaherty, Andrew Lattimore, James Magner, Leonard Mizerek, Michael Naples, Cora Ogden, Deborah Quinn-Munson, Jeanne Rosier Smith, George Van Hook, Sandra Wakeen, and Christopher Zhang, will be included in one of our most popular shows, Summer in New England, returning for its 21st year, from June 21 through August 17, 2024. Working in styles ranging from traditional realism and impressionism to contemporary, these talented artists celebrate New England's coastal charm of idyllic marshlands, beaches, seascapes, dinghies, sailboats, shorebirds, and nocturnes. A sunlit summer studio and the brilliant colors of summer flowers with peaches are unique, colorful works perfectly capturing the essence of the season in this exciting show. "The lure of light, the atmospheric effect drawing the artists to a particular place result in paintings that feel peaceful and beautiful," says gallery owner Susan Powell. 

Join us at the opening reception and meet many of the artists on Friday, June 21 from 5-8 pm. Jeanne Rosier Smith will be giving a painting demonstration the same day on June 21 in the gallery garden from 4-5 pm. Please bring a lawn chair. Jeanne Smith has twice won the First Place Prize in the Pastel Journal Top 100, in 2017 and 2019. 

Please check back frequently as we'll be adding new images weekly.
