Artists were invited to submit works in any medium (e.g. Oil, Acrylic, Watercolor, Photography, Pastel, Ink, Graphite, Drawing, Print, Mixed Media, Sculpture, Assemblage, Fabric, Stone, Clay, Metal) that respond to, and reflect the artist’s interpretation of the themes of chairs, sitting or seating.
Cash prizes will be awarded to three works. In addition, guests who attend the show’s opening night will have the opportunity to select their favorite work of art which will receive the “SHS Crowd Pleaser” award.
The show will be presented in conjunction with an exhibition of the museum’s collection of antique chairs from various times and sources in Sharon’s history.
Both exhibits run from November 4 through December 15.
An opening wine and hors d’oeuvres reception to which the public is invited free of charge will be held on Saturday, November 4 from 5:00 to 7:00PM. All purchases support the Sharon Historical Society & Museum’s mission.
