BRATTLEBORO: The Atrium Hallway Gallery in the Brooks House offers a new group show that will run through January, with an exhibit spotlighting the artwork of six members of Brattleboro-West Arts.
Titled New Passage, the ongoing show’s latest offerings demonstrate the diverse talents of BWA members, from oil paintings by Cyndi M. Ferrante, acrylic paintings by Stephen Lloyd and watercolors by Maisie Crowther to encaustic paintings by Jen Wiechers, colored porcelain mounted on wood by Naomi Lindenfeld and prints by Kay Curtis.
Treat yourself to a visit to the Atrium Hallway Gallery at 132 Main St., and spread the word!
The exhibit is at the invitation of fellow Brattleboro-West Arts members Petria Mitchell and Jim Giddings, owners of the Mitchell ● Giddings Fine Arts gallery. Its Annex exhibit space occupies the main part of the Atrium. They collaborated with the Brooks House management to create a venue in the hallway to showcase local artists.
