Golden Year's Senior Showcase: A Celebration of Senior Art at the Harlin Museum

The Harlin Museum announces its Golden Year's Senior Showcase, a special exhibition that celebrates the artistic talents of local seniors aged 75 and older. This unique event showcases our senior artists, providing a platform to honor their creativity and share their stories.

 

The showcase will run from May 1 to May 31, with a Meet & Greet Reception on May 31 to celebrate the artists and their work. The exhibition will feature a variety of art forms, including paintings, drawings, photographs, sculptures, and other mediums. Whether the artwork is a family heirloom or a more recent creation, all pieces are welcome, and each will be accompanied by a brief biography of the artist.

There is no cost to participate, and up to 10 pieces of artwork may be submitted per artist. Submissions will be accepted from May 1 to May 4 at the Harlin Museum. While the museum will accept any type of art, we prefer that drawings, paintings, and photographs be wired and ready to hang. For sculptures and other three-dimensional art, the museum will work with the submitter to ensure the best display method.

Each submitted piece must include a short biography of the artist, highlighting their background, experience, and artistic journey. This provides museum visitors with insight into the artist's life and their creative process.

 

Key dates to remember: Submission Dates: May 1–May 4; Exhibition Dates: May 1–May 31; and Meet and Greet Reception: May 31.
