Frances Kidder: Body And Soul
2025-05-01 08:00 - 2025-05-25 17:00 (America/New_York) | Oxbow Gallery, 273 Pleasant St, Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
In 2020, during the early days of the Covid pandemic, I began
making paintings of subjects close to home – myself, my husband
and a few friends. Picking up that thread some years later, I’ve
been painting from photographs of geographically far-flung friends
and family, and one seaside couple I saw but never met.
In these works, I wanted, above all, to make an interesting
painting, while also catching something of the person’s
animating spark.

Jeffrey Gillis: Una Familia
2025-05-01 08:00 - 2025-05-25 17:00 | Oxbow Gallery, 273 Pleasant St, Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
Painting any chance he got and wanting to leave his mark in the annals of fine art, Jeffrey Gillis’ first show was in McKenna’s Bar at 14th and 8th. For his latest show, Una Familia, the spotlight is on his in-laws and the time of his wedding in the Dominican Republic. Coming from a family in which he had one first cousin, the whole idea of family is new to him.

My work is equal parts Musical Imagery and Abstract Expressionism. Being a musician and Animal Lover, I use my imagination to marry the two in fun themes and vibrant colors to exude happiness and humor. The more abstract pieces are expressions of the emotions I am feeling in the moment of creation.

The Elusie Gallery
May 3 – May 31
Artists Reception: Saturday May 3, 4-7pm
Secrets… we all have them, we keep them, we share them. They fascinate us, they haunt us, they distress us, they bond us to each other, or they divide us. They can be wonderful, tragic, humorous, devastating, or sources of renewed energy.
This interactive exhibit (there will be a confessional booth…) will feature artwork by Valley artists inspired by the term “secrets”, inspired by their secrets, or by what the word “secrets” represents to them.
A group exhibit conceived by Loretta Kane.
Curated by Loretta Kane and Jean-Pierre Pasche.

In this vibrant and poetic informational picture book, two curious siblings observe the hidden world of a vernal pool: a special kind of puddle habitat that pops up in the spring, dries up by summer, reappears in the fall, and freezes over in the winter—only to come back again in the spring.

After storytime, families will visit Arcadia’s vernal pool and learn more about the creatures that call this sanctuary home.

Linda Booth Sweeney is a writer, educator, game maker, and trampoline jumper who writes fiction and nonfiction for children and adults. She uses science, art, stories, and humor to encourage people of all ages to be curious about the connections that shape our world. Her picture books include The Noisy Puddle: A Vernal Pool Through the Seasons, Apart, Together: A Book about Transformation, Monument Maker: Daniel Chester French and the Lincoln Memorial, When the Snow Falls, and When the Wind Blows. She lives outside of Boston, Massachusetts.

Stephanie Vignone: "Familiar Places: Landscapes" and Roxanne Boyd: "Framing Light"
2025-06-05 08:00 - 2025-06-29 17:00 | Oxbow Gallery, 273 Pleasant St, Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
FRONT GALLERY:
As far back as she can remember, Vignone has spent lots of time walking outdoors. She loves to be outside—in the woods, hiking with her dogs, in the gardens by her house. About twenty years ago, she took a pastel landscape painting class, and began to combine my love of the natural world with painting. Painting the places she sees has given her another deep way to connect with them.
The paintings are done in pastel and oil paint. They are based in observation and sketching—some are finished plein air, and some in the studio.

Boyd pieces are constructions. Boyd often utilizes found objects, and in the upcoming show at Oxbow Gallery, she will be displaying pieces which have an emphasis on their relationship to light.

Katherine Weinstein: "Junctures
2025-06-05 08:00 - 2025-06-29 17:00 | Oxbow Gallery, 273 Pleasant St, Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
Katherine received her MFA from the New York Academy of Art, in NYC where she maintained a studio practice and taught art to middle and high-school students for many years before moving to the valley two decades ago. She continues her passion for painting and teaching art at numerous venues.

Junctures, a particular point in an event or time; a place where things join.

The title reflects the narrative and visual focus of this body of work; themes of adolescence, empty nesting, or just spatial tensions.When developing her images, Katherine looks for transitional points and overlapping forms; jutting elbows, twisting torsos, bodies receding into space or crossing one another.
