NOTHING "UNCANNY" ABOUT TALENTED LOCAL ARTISTS
The abundance of accomplished artists from the Tri-County area is on full display at the annual juried exhibition in the Westmont Ridley-Tree Museum of Art.

A free, public, opening reception for the exhibition is Thursday, May 19, from 4-6 p.m. at the museum. More information is available at westmont.edu/museum/juriedshow2022.
“Robin selected a fabulous exhibition featuring diverse styles and a wide range of subjects,” says Judy L. Larson, R. Anthony Askew professor of art history and museum director. “Works range from captivating painting, sculpture, video, printmaking and assemblage. The show puts a spotlight on the talented community of artists who work in our Tri-County region.”
The exhibition features 45 pieces from 33 local artists, including Inga Guzyte and alumnae Alyssa Beccue, Jenna Grotelueschen, Sharon Schock and Josephine Tournier Ingram. The works of Westmont Art Council members were also chosen, including Sophia Beccue, Susan Read Cronin, Ruth Ellen Hoag and Marica Rickard.
