Annual “Wonders of Water” Community Art Exhibition
September 20, 2022 @ 12:00 am - December 16, 2022 @ 12:00 am
The “Wonders of Water” art exhibition was created by GMCG as an opportunity to examine the relationship between people and water, whether it be salt or fresh water. This annual exhibition explores the myriad ways that water influences our lives and celebrates the beauty of water in the world around us. GMCG hopes to spur creativity among participating artists while reminding everyone of their daily, inseparable and indispensable relationship with water. This process of creation can be, for both participants and observers, a chance to explore the ways that water influences their lives, and to recognize its importance as a source of personal and community sustenance, spiritual enrichment, and beauty.

About the “Wonders of Water” 2021 Community Art Exhibition
Every year Green Mountain Conservation Group invites local artists of all ages and inclinations to join in the “Wonders of Water” (“WOW”) annual community art exhibition to raise awareness and appreciation for the importance of clean water. Artists are invited to a celebration of all things water through art, poetry, performances, and any other creative expressions. All artwork submissions will be shared virtually in an online gallery on GMCG’s website, and artists have the option of submitting their physical artwork to be included in a public showing. Digital artwork submissions are featured on a traveling outdoor banner to be displayed throughout the watershed through the fall.
Partners promoting the “WOW” exhibition include: Effingham Library; Freedom Library. Sandwich Library; Madison Library; Cook Memorial Library in Tamworth; and the Conway Library. GMCG is seeking more partners for 2021 and if you would like to help promote the event or hang the banner at your local business or organization please write to GMCG at info@gmcg.org.
GMCG’s motto is “Healthy Waters, Healthy Communities.” Since 1997 GMCG has worked to protect water through research, education, advocacy and land conservation.
