FRIENDSHIP ART GALLERY

Five Friends, three of them members of the Woodbury Friends Meeting, came together to open an Art Gallery on the grounds of the historic Woodbury Friends Meeting, in the Underwood Building located across the adjoining parking lot. The Gallery opened on March 10, 2024 during Woodbury Friends hosting of Salem Quarterly Meeting. It will be open by appointment only and during community wide event days such as Woodbury Colonial Day. You can also reach a member in person at 12:15 on Sundays after weekly Meeting.

Beginning in Spring of 2025, the gallery will host an open group show on THE ENVIRONMENT. All exhibitions are juried shows. Works can include traditional landscape paintings, photography, botanical drawings, fiber arts such as quilts and needlework, woodworking, to name a few. All work must be framed, wired and ready to hang. For more information you can contact Jo Ann Wright at her e-mail address wrightj45@yahoocom, or if you are familiar with other friends, you can contact Carleton Crispin, property manager, or Jerome Barton, stained glass artist, whose studio is on the premises of the Underwood Bldg.

Thirty works currently on dispay include paintings, photography, stained glass art and 3-d printing. This show has no specific theme but several pieces honor March Women's History Month as the show opened on March 10, 2024.

We hope to see you and we hope you find this an opportunity to exhibit your work if you are a painter, photographer, quilter, woodworker or ceramicist. Works may be offered for sale but all sales must be arranged between artists and buyers not through the gallery. Contact wrightj45@yahoo.com for more information.

Spring is a season for beginnings! Happy Trails, Jo Ann
