Newport Art Museum Busy with Members Revival and Speaker Series

The Newport Art Museum is reviving its Members Annual Juried Exhibition, titled "Springboard," on January 22, after discontinuing the tradition years ago. The show features 140 works by 112 artists, including local Newport figures like brothers Rupert and Sandy Nesbitt, Natasha Harrison, and James Baker, as well as international participants such as Salvadoran artist Oscar Molina, who will represent his country at the 2026 Venice Biennale. The museum is also launching a companion watercolor exhibition by longtime member Pamela Granbery and inaugurating its 97-year-old Winter Speakers Series on January 24 with stone carver Nick Benson.

Newport Art Museum hosts artist panel tied to ‘Springboard’ exhibition April 16

The Newport Art Museum is set to host "Voices of Springboard" on April 16, a moderated panel discussion featuring four artists from its current members' juried exhibition. Led by juror and art consultant Julie Keyes, the event features artists Karin Gielen, Tas Mahr, Saberah S. Malik, and Janice Smyth. The discussion will explore the transition from emerging to professional status, the impact of branding on artistic careers, and how contemporary practices engage with historical museum collections.
