Juried Art Show Opening at Gallery 529 on Sunday

Gallery 529 of Littleton is gearing up for its next juried art show to benefit the MSPCA –Nevins Farm. The opening for the show will be Sunday, December 6, from 4 – 6 pm. Free and open to the public, it will be a great opportunity to support a worthy cause, as well as pick up a handmade gift for someone special.

The show will be on exhibit from December 5 through mid-January. The theme of the show is “Best Friends.” Dr. Judith Herman, a veterinarian from Augusta, Maine, who specializes in homeopathic medicine for animals and is an accomplished artist, served as a juror for this show.

According to Gallery Executive Director Virginia Wood, “Last year we did a fundraiser for the Nevins Farm that was as much fun as it was successful. We are hoping for a similar result this year.” A percentage of the entry fees for the show as well as a percentage of sales will go to the Farm. Member artists have also participated in the cause, glazing stoneware bowls that will be sold, with all the proceeds going to support the good efforts of the MSPCA – Nevins Farm.

Nevins Farm, in Methuen, is a multi- service organization operated by the MSPCA. At the Farm one can adopt practically any type of animal, from chickens to dogs, as well as attend programs offered in dog training and behavior. Many of our member artists have also adopted animals, and as part of this effort to promote the good work of the MSPCA, and Nevins Farm, our artists will be telling the stories of their adopted animals during December.
