2020 Shows

Here Comes the Sun: The Color Yellow  |  March 22 – April 12
*The opening reception for The Yellow Show has been cancelled in light of current circumstances/COVID-19. We will still be accepting artwork Monday & Tuesday March 16 & 17 and creating an online gallery to share with our community. 
In March, we are all craving more warmth and sunshine, seems only fitting to bring some brightness to the Francine Kelly Gallery! Yellow will be featured as our color show this year. Yellow stands for hope, positivity, clarity, energy, optimism and enlightenment. According to numerous studies, yellow helps activate the memory, encourage communication, enhance vision, build confidence and stimulate the nervous system. So as we enter a new decade, let's turn on the lights and spread a little JOY! After all, who doesn't smile when they think of Big Bird, Marilyn Monroe, glowing sunsets and lemons?! Artists may submit up to three NEW pieces in any medium, not previously shown at Featherstone.
For Artists: 
Drop off: Monday & Tuesday, March 16 & 17 from 10AM-4PM each day

We hope to showcase Martha's Vineyard from all over the world!

Up to three pieces can be submitted per artist. For each piece, please include: a photo of the piece and a copy of the Vineyard Colors photo that inspired it (contact Vineyard Colors if you need help finding it. Include the title, medium and size of the piece.
