The Sullivan Area Art Guild is celebrating its 50th anniversary, marking five decades of supporting local creativity in Sullivan, Indiana. Founded in April 1976, the organization maintains a gallery on the town square where it hosts monthly meetings and year-round community projects. To commemorate the milestone, the guild is currently featuring a themed exhibition titled "Past, Present and Future."
The City of Gainesville and The Arts Council of Northeast Georgia partnered to host a public art showcase on the downtown square. The event featured a diverse range of works from local creators, transforming the city's central hub into an open-air gallery for the evening.
East End Arts hosted a final exhibition titled "The Forward Frame" at its historic East Main Street gallery in Riverhead before the building undergoes a massive structural renovation. As part of the Riverhead Town Square redevelopment project, the 1840s-era building will be raised seven feet to escape the Peconic River floodplain and reconfigured alongside a new five-story Hilton hotel. During the farewell event, community members were invited to create ephemeral art directly on the gallery walls, marking a transition period where the organization will operate out of temporary spaces at 11 and 48 West Main Street.
