We Want to Exhibit Your Artwork!

The deadline is quickly approaching to drop off your lighthouse-themed artwork for the ACWL-Nuveen’s summer show – Beacons on the Shore – on display July 29 – August 30. Please deliver your artwork the week of July 12 – 19 during our open hours: Tuesday – Friday 11:00am – 5:30pm and Saturday 11:00am – 3:00pm.

This show is FREE to artisans of all ages working with all art media. This exhibit was inspired by the White River Light Station's 150^th anniversary but your artwork can reference any lighthouse or light station anywhere in the world or even from your imagination!  What inspires you about lighthouses? Let us showcase your creativity!

This painting, which can be found at the Montague Museum, was painted by local artist Fred Norman. It was gifted to Maude Berg Adamson in 1902 in celebration of her wedding. Mrs. Adamson was granddaughter of Capt. William Robinson - first Keeper of the White River Lighthouse - and was born in the lighthouse!

For further enticement we are offering prizes in both the Youth and Adult categories! There will be a $100 ACWL-Nuveen Adult award and a $50 top Youth award. Art supplies will be given to the Adult and Youth Honorable Mention winners. Award winners will be announced at the community reception for the show on Saturday, August 2 from 1:00 – 3:00pm.
