Twiggs Gallery in Boscawen reopens for the season on Saturday, April 6. 

“Pushing Our Boundaries,” Twiggs Gallery’s first exhibit for the 2024 season opens on April 6. The spring exhibition showcases the collaborative talent of four League of NH Craftsmen artists. Woodworker Steven Hayden, textile artist Cheryl Miller, ceramist Lori Rollason, and mixed media artist and calligrapher Adele Sanborn collaborate as the 9th State Artisans.

Each artist has selected a quote or poem and formulated a challenge to the group. “Pushing Our Boundaries” showcases the result of this creative collaboration.

The exhibit opens with an artists’ reception on Saturday, April 9 from 1 to 3 p.m. at Twiggs Gallery (254 King Street in Boscawen) and runs through May 19.

“What’s fascinating about this exhibit is how these four artists, working in completely different media, push each other creatively. They are exploring new things and working outside their comfort zone to create new work. They really are pushing themselves beyond their boundaries!” shared gallery director Laura Morrison.
