Granite State Gallery: New Hampshire Art and Artists through the Years

NH Humanities to Go presenter Jane Oneail will be at the NEW Daland Memorial Library on
Wednesday, March 25th at 6:30pm to present her talk Granite State Gallery.
New Hampshire has attracted and inspired artists since the colonial era. What is distinctive about the art made here? This program will consider works by itinerant and folk painters, landscape artists drawn to the state’s scenic vistas, and modern artists that adopted bold styles to depict everyday life in the Granite State. Augustus Saint-Gaudens, Childe Hassam, and Maxfield Parrish are some of the artists discussed in this program. Join us in the new Daland Memorial Library programming room.
This event is made possible from a grant from New Hampshire Humanities.
