Have you ever thought to yourself, "I could do that!" when looking at a work of abstract art in a museum or gallery? Or maybe you’ve wondered why collectors would pay millions for artworks that seem simplistic, bizarre, or just plain ugly? It is sometimes tempting to think that art is just "in the eye of the beholder." But, by imagining art history as an ongoing conversation, Champlain College Professor David Mills explores ways of encountering art as more than just subjective preference. This highly visual presentation provides new ways to interact with what we find in museums and galleries.
This community event is free and open to the public.

What is Art? is a Vermont Humanities Council program hosted by Bryan Memorial Gallery in conjunction with the Jeffersonville Art Jam. (Supported in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed in this program do not necessarily represent those of the NEH or VHC.)
Join Bryan Memorial Gallery as we welcome artist Nathaniel Williams to the Gallery as part of our "Creative Process" demo series. Nathaniel will provide attendees the chance to see how he creates his photo realistic works of art, and answer any questions people may have.
Nathaniel is based in central Vermont, where he is lucky to be surrounded by an incredibly diverse and interesting landscape. In all of his paintings, he's thinking about places and scenes that have a specific meaning for him - many are from Vermont, many are from other places he has lived or that otherwise have had an impact on him.
Nathaniel paints all aspects of his surroundings, working in both oil and watercolor. Nathaniel is willing to consider anything as a potential subject for a painting if it can be developed into a good design and provokes some kind of emotional response. But most often he is interested in painting elements of the built environment, including especially houses, cars, gas stations, parking lots, roads, and railroads. Things that are often overlooked and fill the background of our lives and travels are an endless source of interest and inspiration.
Nathaniel's approach to painting changes in response to each subject. Smaller paintings may be completed in one session on location, other paintings may take weeks of work indoors.
This event will be held in
the East Gallery, and is free and open to the public. Space is limited, and
seating is on a first come basis. Registration is not required.
Contact the Gallery at (802) 644-5100 if you have any further questions, and we look forward to seeing you at this informative event!
Artist: Jessica Fligg
Saturday, July 22, 2023
12:00pm to 2:00pm
Join us as we welcome artist Jessica Fligg to the Gallery as part of our "Creative Process" demo series. Jessica will provide attendees the chance to see how she creates her works of art, and answer any questions people may have.
Jessica is an award-winning artist primarily working in oils. Jessica studied painting at the New Hampshire Institute of Art in Manchester. She works from her studio in Ashland, NH and paints extensively en plein air. She started drawing at a very young age with her Great Grandmother and her interest and passion for the arts has grown over the years. Jessica Travels throughout the Northeast with her newly restored vintage camper that she uses as a mobile art studio. This is a wonderful way for her to experience new areas and capture them in plein air paintings. Jessica paints en plein air throughout the year in all types of weather but her favorite time to go painting is in the middle of a snow storm! She sets up her trusty beach umbrella to use as a shelter and captures the snowy scene. Jessica also works on mixed media pieces and larger studio works that are inspired by her plein air adventures.
This event will be held in the East Gallery, and is free and open to the public. Space is limited, and seating is on a first come basis. Registration is not required.
