LYMAN ALLYN ART MUSEUM PRESENTS THE ARTIST WITHIN

New London – The Lyman Allyn Art Museum is pleased to announce the opening of The Artist WithIN. The exhibition will be on view from June 10 through July 24, 2016.

The Artist WithIN, the third exhibition in the Lyman Allyn’s Near :: New contemporary series, began when OutCT, our region’s LGBTQ organization, asked OutCT board member and artist Amy Hannum to curate an art exhibition in celebration of Pride month.

This June, the Lyman Allyn honors that tradition by inviting the 3rd annual Artist WithIN exhibit to the Glassenberg Gallery. The exhibit will feature artists identifying as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender/Transsexual, Queer/Questioning. OutCT supports our diverse population and seeks to promote this group of artists who are potentially marginalized by their sexual orientation or gender identity.

In the past the show has included a variety of media including oil, acrylic and encaustic paintings, sculpture and photography. The subject matter of the artwork may or may not pertain to LGBTQ issues or lifestyle.

The opening reception will be on June 10th from 5:00 – 7:00pm. Museum members are free and non-members are $10. Please RSVP to 860.443.2545 ext. 129.

For more information or images, please contact Rebecca Marsie at 860.443.2545 x112 or at marsie@lymanallyn.org.
