The Hampshire Council of Governments is pleased to offer exhibit space to artists living and working in the greater Hampshire County Area. The Old Courthouse Gallery is the central hall of the Old Courthouse at 99 Main Street, Northampton. To see our Exhibit Schedule for 2008, please click here: 2008 Schedule The gallery is open to the public during regular courthouse business hours: 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, M-F. Enter through courthouse security at 15 Gothic Street. (Pocket knives and cameras are not allowed.) Most artists will be also participating in the city-wide gallery open house, ArtsNightOut, sponsored by the Northampton Area Chamber of Commerce. These open houses are usually from 5 to 8 pm on the second Friday of the month. Occasionally, the open house is scheduled for a different night to avoid a conflict. For more information about ArtsNightOut, click here: http://www.northamptonuncommon.com/nohoartwalk.pdf May: 2008 Walter Cudnohufsky PO Box 419 Ashfield MA 01330 walt@wcala.com Originals in hand made frames; 16x20 to 31x40 Representational landscapes. See web page: www.cudnohufsky.com Walter Cudnohufsky has been an enthusiastic resident of New England for over thirty years. He creates works of art faithful to the realist tradition in watercolor and pencil. His art captures the powerful, mutable New England landscape with an emphasis on the expressive quality of trees. His mature experience as a landscape architect has nurtured Walter’s keen sensibility to landscape composition and nuance. This enables him to create evocative and compelling artistic compositions. Lawn Exhibit: October 2007 – September 2008 Andrew DeVries’ exquisite cast bronze sculptures will dance on the Courthouse lawn for a year. http://www.andrewdevries.com/ . Please see the October gallery listing for the opening reception and accompanying indoor exhibit. The Council is currently scheduling exhibits of two dimensional artwork for 2008 and 2009.
