January 5 - January 30, 2022:
Hello There! The 4th Annual Greater Lowell Regional Art Show
Working together, students from Chelmsford High School, Innovation Academy Charter School, and Tyngsborough High School have created art designed to spark conversation. Hello There! celebrates young artists’ voices, with work that exemplifies the energy and courage of a rising generation.
Throughout the pandemic, high school students were isolated. Precaution disconnected students from their community. Hello There! reintroduces young artists to each other and the world. Created with a focus on hands-on education and collaboration, this show explores the hard-learned truth that contact is a basic human need. We must return to socializing, safely, now. Hello There! invites us to engage, compare, communicate. Their art addresses what we feel and how we think, as well as the challenges facing our world.
Meet the artists Saturday, January 8 from 3-5pm, during Western Avenue Studios monthly Open Studios which runs noon-5pm.

About Us
Opened in January 2008, this spacious gallery is located on the second floor of the Western Avenue Studios historic mill complex, and is divided into three sections.
The front Showcase Gallery features a new exhibit each month which may highlight the work of our members, or feature a broader spectrum of work in a juried or themed show. Each exhibition provides the opportunity to "Meet the Artist(s)" on the first Saturday of the month.
The Back Door Gallery around the corner of the gallery main door, features a gallery member for two months. During November and December most members have their work on view.
Artwork in the curated main galleries is changed quarterly and features original fine art and crafts including photography, paintings, handcrafted gift items, jewelry, greeting cards, handmade soap and lotions, pottery, digital prints and works on paper, art-to-wear and much more.

The Gallery is open:
Monday thru Saturday: 12:00 to 5:30 pm
Sunday: 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm
