Lyme Art Association is proud to announce Point of View, the 101st Annual Elected Artists Show. This exhibition showcases the best of the best in representational art from our Elected Artists, who are our most accomplished artists and the torch-bearers for the American representational tradition. They follow directly in the footsteps of the Lyme Art Colony artists who hung their Tonalist and Impressionist works on the walls of the local library in 1901. This is an exhibition that should not be missed. Running concurrently is True Blue.  Considered beneficial to the mind and body, the color blue elicits a sense of tranquility and healing. We challenged our Associated Artists to submit work where blue is the predominant or most significant color in their piece.  This ode to blue will be a visual feast for viewers. 

Both shows are proudly sponsored by Chelsea Groton Bank, our Supporting Sponsor.

The Opening Reception for both shows is Friday, August 19 from 5 to 7 pm, at the Lyme Art Association, 90 Lyme Street in Old Lyme, Connecticut. Point of View and True Blue are on view from August 12 - September 22, 2022, and are open to the public. The gallery is open from 10 am to 5 pm, Wednesday through Sunday, and by appointment.
