Gallery at WREN
The 2023 Gallery Season is sponsored by the Adair Inn.
The Gallery at WREN sets the standard for fine art galleries in the North Country. Established in 2001, the Gallery serves as a cultural outlet for the creative expression of a community, where the public can gather to enjoy, learn about, and appreciate art.
We welcome you to visit the Gallery during our regular store hours.
In the mountains of northern New Hampshire, where opportunities for professional artists and serious art lovers can be limited, the Gallery presents a new show every two months featuring local and regional artists. Once a year, WREN members are invited to participate in popular open-call group shows, which serve not only as supportive learning experiences for new and emerging artists, but as community celebrations of the incredible talent and diversity in our midst.
The Gallery at WREN offers engaging artist talks, as well as “Arts at Adair”, a new initiative in partnership with the Adair Country Inn & Restaurant. Follow us on social media to learn more.
Current Exhibition:
Women in Print: Four Printmakers
Women in Print: Four Printmakers is the latest exhibition in the Gallery at WREN. For this show, four New Hampshire printmakers (Rachel O’Meara, Kathie Lovett, Kelly Slater, and Pam Smith) share their reverence for the natural world through various printmaking techniques and four distinct styles.
This exhibition will be on view March 4 through April 30 in the Gallery at WREN. The opening reception will take place on Saturday, March 4 from 5-7 PM, and will also feature the debut of zines made by local middle schoolers over February vacation, from 4-5 PM. All are welcome to attend! In the event of snow, the reception will be Sunday, March 5, 1-3 PM.
The Gallery is open during WREN’s regular hours, Monday-Saturday 10 AM-5 PM (closed Wednesdays) and Sunday 10 AM-4 PM.
The Adair Country Inn & Restaurant is the proud sponsor of the Gallery at WREN.

ARTS AT ADAIR
