Call Description:
All artists in N.H. and Vermont are invited to submit up to sx pieces for this annual event at The Livery , a beautiful display gallery in a historic building in Sunapee Harbor, New Hampshire. This is a fine art exhibit displaying the diverse and creative talent of the NH/VT region and the theme is  Landscapes and Wildlife .Naturally New England will continue as the umbrella title for this year’s exhibition, curated into four thematic sections that reflect the emotional experience of life and landscape in our region: Serenity, Joy, Endurance, and Belonging. Artists are invited to submit work that captures not only the visual character of New England, but also the feeling it evokes—creating a cohesive yet varied exhibition that offers viewers multiple ways to connect with place, memory, and mood.

                                                      Serenity — quiet moments, stillness, minimalism, soft light, solitude, and a sense of calm
                                                          Joy — warmth, color, movement, seasonal abundance, light, and visual energy
                                                   Endurance — resilience, time, weather, history, aging structures, and the strength of the land
                                                      Belonging — home, memory, familiarity, community, and places that feel deeply known. 

Our goal is to provide artists with the best venue at the best time of the summer in the middle of the Sunapee vacation region.
