Gallery 529 Artists at PCA of Westford

Looking for something to do on Sunday? Take a break from the yard work and visit the Parish Center for the Arts (PCA) of Westford between 12 - 2 pm!

Gallery 529 is showcasing the incredible talent from its artist cooperative at the PCA during the month of September. More than 30 artists make up 529’s membership in both the cooperative and consignment areas, and this exhibit will feature many of them. The art will include works in watercolors, oils, pastels, acrylics, photography, ceramics and woodworking. The gallery artists make their homes in many nearby towns, including Littleton, Westford, Concord, Acton, Carlisle, Groton and Townsend.

According to show organizer and Townsend resident Nancy French, “Working with the diverse group of artists from Gallery 529 has been great. Though the exhibit is just a sampling of what one would find while visiting the gallery in person, the range of work represented at the PCA shows the depth of the artists at Gallery 529.”

In business for less than a year, Gallery 529 is already becoming a hot destination in the region. The gallery is a fine arts retail store where visitors can find the perfect gift for any occasion. It shares the building with Act III Restaurant, where one can enjoy a glass of wine and a delicious snack or meal while listening to live music. Fine art, delicious food and live music on most evenings - a total celebration of the arts! What could be better?

The Gallery and its artists have also been holding a series of juried exhibits to raise money for nonprofit organizations. These ‘fundraiser’ exhibits include the MSPCA-Nevins Farm, Habitat for Humanity and coming up in October, “Memories” a juried exhibit to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association of Massachusetts and New Hampshire. There are also plans in the works to do a children’s art exhibit in January to benefit the Castle in the Trees Playground in Littleton, MA.

Gallery 529 is located at 529 King Street, adjacent to the Littleton, Massachusetts town common, just off I-495, and Rte 2,near the intersection of Routes 119 and 110. Browse its website to learn more about what Gallery 529 has to offer: www.gallery529.com.
