JANUARY SHOWCASE
YOUTHFUL VISIONS
January 4th to January 29th
Reception 3-5pm, Saturday January 7, part of
Western Avenue Studios’ monthly open house.
Loading Dock Gallery presents Youthful Visions: 6th Annual Greater Lowell Regional Art Show, a showcase of art by local high school seniors. Participating are students from Innovation Academy Charter School, Lunenburg High School, Groton Dunstable High School, Lowell High School, Tyngsboro High School, Billerica High School, and Pelham High School.
In Youthful Visions, students present their generational perspective on our times. They ask, “What am I going to do?” and “What do I see in the world?” Their artworks are mixed media, based on the students’ interpretation of the theme and their personal experience and style. Youthful Visions uplifts local young artists. For many it is a first opportunity to show work in a public gallery.
This January, share the rising generation’s Youthful Visions of our world.
Youthful Visions runs January 4-29 at Loading Dock Gallery, 122 Western Avenue, Lowell, MA, open noon-5:30pm, Wednesday-Saturday, and noon-4pm Sundays.

FEBRUARY SHOWCASE
BLACK AND WHITE
February 4th to February 26th
Reception 3-5pm, Saturday February 4. With presentations by the artists at 4pm, part of
Western Avenue Studios’ monthly open house.
Sandrine Colson and Jean Wallace present Black & White. Black and white are culturally powerful signifiers. Black and white thinking reduces the world to binary choices. Black & White explores perception: opposites and the nuances in between.
Colson sees herself as a storyteller. She works abstractly, using bold marks and intricate shapes, often referencing natural forms. Her work is filled with paint swirls, playful paper cut-outs, and three-dimensional objects, resulting in richly textured canvases with intricate layers and meanings.
Wallace draws inspiration from personal experience while addressing universal themes such as family, strength, loss, and grief. Her work is narrative, visceral, and documentary. She works with a variety of media including photography, encaustic painting, and mixed media.
