The Northampton Center for the Arts presents Pliable Entanglements in the Barn Door Gallery. This exhibition, featuring the works of Eva Barajas, María Sparrow, and Ross Momaney, invites viewers to reflect on their past, present, and future while recognizing the flexible connections that bind us to the lives around us. The exhibit encourages us to appreciate the subtle and invisible ties that unite us all, emphasizing the idea that our observations and interactions continuously shape and connect us in profound ways.
Stay for an Artist Talk at 7:30 pm in the Barn Door Gallery!
We’re excited to present two exhibits in the Split Level Gallery this month! Everyday/Every Day can be seen on the Mezzanine level, and features the works of Deb Lohmeyer, Joyce Lak, and Nancy Lowry. During the global pandemic, these artists started a peer-to-peer group sharing a "photo a day" project to stay connected. They took and shared daily photos on Instagram, which improved their photography skills and helped them notice and appreciate the beauty in everyday life. Whether in their hometown or exploring new places, the project encouraged them to pay closer attention to the wonders around them.
Continue to the lower level of the Split Level Gallery to see Home, Freedom, Beauty by Adeyemi Adebayo. The work explores the themes of home, beauty, and freedom through the lens of solitude, disposition, and the longing for home. The work focuses on the human disposition in different states and across time, emphasizing the quiet, contemplative, yet revealing nature of people as they navigate through life, leisure, and struggles for freedom.

ARTS NIGHT OUT AT 33 HAWLEY
FRIDAY, July 12th, 5:00-8:00 PM
Artist talk at 7:30 with Eli Liebman & Lynsey Robertson
EXHIBITS:
Barn Door Gallery: Hold me close, I’m re-membering how it goes
(Exhibit runs July 5-31)
Split Level Gallery: Worldly Considerations: Unusual Reflections Paintings and prints by Martha Braun
(Exhibit runs July 9-28)
LIVE MUSIC by Silvie’s Okay
FREE!
Please join the Northampton Center for the Arts, A.P.E. Ltd., and Northampton Open Media at 33 Hawley for an opening reception with refreshments and live music during Arts Night Out on Friday, 7/12, from 5:00-8:00 pm! : Hold me close, I’m re-membering how it goes by Eli Liebman and Lynsey Robertson can be seen in the Barn Door Gallery. The works of Hold Me Close spring from the desire to question an unthinkable and unknowable world and self. The presented work - a body of quilts, a collaborative “newspaper,” and a few ceramic sculptures - embraces a wide range of disparate parts into familiar and quotidian containers.
Worldly Considerations: Unusual Reflections Paintings and prints by Martha Braun can be seen in the Split Level Gallery. If one has a consistent practice, a curious mind, and a conscious awareness of one’s own personal aesthetic, one can make art out of anything. The “anythings” prevalent in this work are the old and supposedly ruined, things that have inherent to them a sense of the passage of time. This element of history creates a context in which the mystical content of the imagery can resonate.
