Our current exhibition, “8 Visions,” closes today at 4pm. Last chance to take in this year’s innovative pieces, like “Woman with Gun” by Sharon Cutts. Sharon’s process involves painting yards of loose canvas and shooting it with her 12-gauge shotgun. The shot canvas is then cut and collaged, sometimes with staples, onto a stretched canvas resulting in a highly textured and tense surface.

Come view Sharon’s work in person, and touch a sample of her shot canvas, in the AAM’s Ottmar Gallery today.

It’s our final post of PIECES OF THE WEEK from our summer art programs! Today we have a five-cell comic triumph in Sharpie and marker by Caydance P., (age 9) that focused on a unique character design depicting different emotions. On the other side of the studio we have a mixed media masterpiece in found objects and beads by Addyson H., (age 14) that was inspired by Claude Monet’s waterlilies. We’ve had an incredible season of artmaking, and ALL budding artists are to be congratulated for their talent, hard work, and imagination!

JOIN US FOR MORE ART-MAKING! Register today for a fall art class or workshop – visit www.attleboroartsmuseum.org, click on “Our Classes.”

Our 2026 “8 Visions” exhibition closes tomorrow, Saturday, August 22nd at 4pm – don’t miss your chance to view original works of art like “The Cross-Contamination of Leonardo Fibonacci,” an oil painting by Todd Kefor. Todd’s paintings punctuate relationships - between shape and form, unity and tension, control and serendipity. Though he values visual resolution, he celebrates the routes that lead there, never sacrificing the primitive joys of mark-making.
