The Lyme Art Association presents the annual showcase of the best new works of art by elected artists members. These artists are professionals whose works are known, collected, and exhibited throughout the country, as well as along the shoreline.

Gallery Manager Jocelyn Zallinger says, “Each year this exhibition fills the gallery with some of the finest representational artwork from living artists that our visitors are likely to see. Our elected artists are so accomplished and it is with pride and pleasure that I hang this exhibition.”

Jeff Anderson, director of the Florence Griswold Museum, will be juror of selection and awards.

In the Red, celebrating works containing red, a color symbolizing fire, passion, anger, and fertility, runs concurrent with the elected artist show, on view Friday, May 5 to Friday, June 16.

Also on view in The Art Market is an unjuried show featuring an entirely new collection of affordable works. All artwork on display is for sale.

There will be an opening reception attended by the artists and open to the public on Friday, May 12 from 5 to 7 p.m. The Lyme Art Association is at 90 Lyme Street, Old Lyme.

Admission is free with contributions appreciated. Gallery hours are Wednesday through Sunday, noon to 5 p.m., or by appointment. For more information on exhibitions, purchase of art, art classes, or becoming a member, call 860-434-7802 or visit www.lymeartassociation.org.
