Finding the Perfect Gift

Need an alternative to another boring sweater?? Think about a gift of art. We have artwork to please anyone on your holiday list. Everyone has a spot for a small piece of art--tabletop, bookshelf, or even a small wall. And a piece of artwork will bring a smile all year long.

Maybe this is the year to start a tradition for someone on your list...a lovely piece of art!!

Successful "Treasures" Hunt

"Treasures", the latest show to open at Art 3, was a rousing success. Many more people came than were expected and we even finished the brie. Last night we collected canned goods for our neighbors, the NH Food Bank. A percentage of last night's sales also were donated, so they should expect a nice check from us next week. We raffled a gift basket from Angela's Pasta and Cheese Shop here in Manchester and the lucky winners are the Bennetts from Londonderry. Come and visit the gallery during our regular hours of Monday through Friday, 8:30 to 5-ish. Lots of gift items are stacked up ready for the holiday season. The exhibit has works by over 100 artists including several new artists here for the first time.

Anything Goes

New Show Opens - Join us for the opening reception on Thursday Sept. 17, 2009 from 5-8 p.m. in conjunction with Open Doors Manchester.
We have put together an eclectic collection of artwork from some of our usual suspects as well as several new artists. We have a little bit of everything - paintings, pastels, sculpture, glassware, and jewelry. Start at the gallery, and if there's time, ride the trolley around Manchester.

In the Eye of the Beholder

One of our abstract artists brought in some new pieces in preparation for our September show entitled "Anything Goes." Pat Gerkin creates layered mixed media and acrylic paintings. The viewer is able to read into each work their own interpretation.

Visit the gallery to see more of this artist and others like her.

beat the heat!

You only have one more week to come in to the gallery to view "At the Water's Edge", our summer show. Stop by, view this wonderful show and take a break from the heat!!

New work is arriving at the gallery daily, as we prepare for our fall show "Anything Goes".

These are new pieces from Maine artist Thea Flanagan whose work is described as a blend of pointillism, impressionism, and photo-realism. Come in and see if you might have a place for one of these treasures!

Art 3 Welcomes New Artist

Art 3 Gallery welcomed a new artist last week - Tricia Gibbs. She creates meticulous still lifes on canvas in an almost photo-realist manner. Visit the gallery to see this and other similar works of art.

Better Late Than Never

The opening for "At the Water's Edge" was attended by a variety of people, young and old, some new to the gallery, several artists, and many friends and relatives. The exhibit is continuing until August 28th. Come in and visit.
