During August and September, Sharon Arts Downtown Galleries will feature a show entitled "Home and Retreat", featuring the collaborative work of emerging artists who live and work in the Monadnock Region as well as those who travel from all over to work here. The exhibit will offer multiple forms of artistic expression including performances by local musicians.
Featured artists: Alison Fritz, Rachel Garceau, Eric Gagne, Aimee LaRue, Christopher Myott, Ben Putnam, Noah Sparkes, Erin Sweeney, Kat Thorpe, Liza Twery, Rachael Wheeler, Dana Wood, Mike Wrobel, Albert Zuger, and the Big Front Room Collective (BFR): mary d. goldthwaite, Frank Mann, Sarah Pupo, Mishayla Greist Schmidt and Danielle Wood. The show's curators selected this theme as a natural extension of themes that they (and the other featured artists) have continued to explore in their own work. mary d. goldthwaite, originally from South Hampton, NH, lives and teaches high school art in Peterborough, NH. Her work has been exhibited internationally. Candice Cassella has called many places her home and has studied in Florence, Italy.

Gallery hours are Tues-Thurs 10-6; Fri 10-7; Sat 10-6; Sun 11-4. Closed Mondays. The Gallery is located at 30 Grove Street in Peterborough. Ample parking in Depot Square.
