The Newburyport Art Association (NAA) is thrilled to announce the opening of "Scenes of Newburyport: Our Natural Heritage," on view July 26th through August 4th in our Sargent, Hartson and small gallery spaces. 

Just in time for Yankee Homecoming celebrations, this exhibition tells the story of our region's rich natural heritage, from coastal landscapes, broad vistas to native plant and wildlife that make up the colorful Newburyport mosaic. Join us at the opening reception on July 26th from 5:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. to celebrate our community and community arts!

To ensure a diverse range of artwork reflecting the variety of Newburyport life, this show offers a plethora of perspectives, media, genres and disciplines, from representational to abstract work and large scale painting to small artisan pieces. Whether you are a Newburyport native or an appreciative tourist, expect to find a multidisciplinary array of work highlighting local architecture, Great Marsh views, harborside scenes, downtown life and of course a Pink House or two.

The exhibition will take place during the height of Newburyport's beloved Yankee Homecoming celebrations, and there will also be a $250 "People's Choice Award" provided to the artist whose work collects the most votes from visitors at our 65 Water Street galleries. 

Scenes of Newburyport is supported through the generosity of New England Biolabs and The Stobart Foundation, who believe in the arts and artists as valuable partners for enriching our world. The galleries are free and open to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 11:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. and Sunday from 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. For more information, please visit us at newburyportart.org.
