East Gallery: Current Exhibitions

Current Exhibitions at the Helen Day Art Center's East Gallery.

Peggy Smith: CONTAIN-HER

August 27 - October 9, 2010

Opening Reception: Friday, August 27, 5:00 pm
Artist Talk: Friday, August 27, 5:30 pm

Peggy Smith’s art practice is a daily meditation for her.  Smith begins each day with a ball of clay which she considers a prayer for peace for that day.

Freely pursuing a wide range of forms and interests, she acknowledges the tension in her  work between harnessing her energy in one pursuit, and allowing her practice to range widely.

The works in the exhibition are primarily vessels -some figurative and some abstract- all inspired by and generated from her ritual that begins with clay, prayer, and meditation.

The East Gallery at Helen Day Art Center

The Helen Day Art Center offers changing exhibitions, carefully selected by our guest curators and exhibitions director.
Our East Gallery gallery features the work of emerging artists from Vermont, New England and the Hudson Valley corridor of New York.

The Helen Day works to spread art knowledge in our community while awakening imagination in our future artists. Every year thousands of children visit our gallery. Shows are free to any school in Vermont who applies to a bus scholarship through our education department. We thank our supporters for this.
