Lyme Art Association’s First Impressions Exhibition is a juried exhibition of the Association’s Associate Artist members, accomplished artists who have been successfully exhibiting in selective shows at the Lyme Art Association for a number of years. This exhibit will include a variety of media and themes: landscape, portrait, and still life paintings, as well as sculpture. In addition, the New Elected Artists show in the Goodman gallery will present work from four new Elected Artists. This year the Elected Artists welcome Michael Centrella, Jacqueline Jones, Susan Termyn, and Len Swec into this most selective and talented group of artists. Both exhibits run from January 15 through March 11, 2021.
 
"The Annual Associate Artists Exhibition highlights the range, creativity, and excellence of our Associate Artist members. This exhibition includes a variety of subjects, media, and styles: paintings or sculptures that capture the range of human emotion, the beauty and grandeur of the Connecticut landscape, or the personal objects and surroundings of everyday life," states Jocelyn Zallinger, LAA’s Gallery Manager. “The New Elected Artists show in the Goodman Gallery promises to be impressive; our new class of Elected Artists is very accomplished!”
 
First Impressions and New Elected Artists are on view from January 15 through March 11, 2021. Please wear a face covering when visiting and practice social distancing. Visiting the gallery is a wonderful, safe outing during this cold and dark season!
