Local Emerging Artists Showcased at Portsmouth Arts Guild Show

Just in time to help us celebrate Portsmouth's 375th anniversary, our local community's Emerging Artists will be on display at the Portsmouth Arts Guild (PAG) Center for the Arts for the next two weekends.

Everyone is invited on Saturday, January 26 from 2-4 pm for the opening reception of Emerging Artists, featuring mixed media artwork of high school students from Portsmouth and Tiverton High Schools.  This event is free and open to the public.  Light refreshments will be served.  The PAG Emerging Artist Show runs for two weekends, January 26 and 27 and February 2 and 3.
