The 3rd Annual Lyme Land Conservation Trust’s âCelebrating Lymeâs Beautyâ Exhibition will be shown in the Goodman Gallery of the Lyme Art Association and will run concurrent with the LAAâs annual holiday exhibition, Deck the Walls. A festive opening reception will be held on November 21, 2014 from 5-7pm. On exhibit will be landscapes created in October 2014 during the “Celebrating Lyme’s Beauty” Paint-Out. The Paint-Out event continues the plein air tradition established by the early American Impressionists who founded the Lyme Art Colony over a hundred years ago.
The landscapes will highlight the natural beauty of the Lyme Land Trustâs 102-acre Banningwood Preserve. The clear waters of Roaring Brook flow through the middle of the Preserve. Dramatic stone ledges, once quarried to provide stone for nearby Gillette Castle, rise over the landscape. Features include dramatic vistas, lush meadows, cedar groves, quarry pools and tree canopies.
This event is a fundraiser for the Lyme Land Conservation Trust, with a portion of each sale donated to the Trust to further its mission to preserve Lymeâs natural beauty for the public benefit.
Opening Reception: Friday, November 21, 5-7 pm
Gallery Hours: Monday â Saturday, 10am â 5pm, Sunday 1 â 5pm
Painting: âSun on Old Bonesâ donated to the Lyme Land Conservation Trust by Trenton F. Youngs, oil on canvas
