RNAC will conclude the 2025 season with Member Showcase, a dynamic juried exhibition highlighting the work of 5-8 RNAC artist-members.  This prestigious opportunity invites a select group of artists—curated by a distinguished guest juror—to show a cohesive body of their recent work.  Works may cohere based on theme or style; or they might demonstrate the evolution of an idea, technique, or style over time.  An artist statement explaining the work should accompany each submission.  Member Showcase aims to celebrate artistic excellence and innovation across a wide range of media and subject matter and to offer viewers a deeper understanding of the artists’ work.  

Our juror, Shana Dumont Garr is a contemporary art curator, writer, and educator based in Greater Boston. She is a curator at Emerson Contemporary and a professor in the Department of Visual & Media Arts at Emerson College.

The Rocky Neck Art Colony (RNAC) invites artists to submit work for inclusion in Boundless: The Art of the Book, to be held at The Cultural Center at Rocky Neck, in Gloucester, Massachusetts.

The artist book, rather than disappearing in this digital age, is enjoying a period of reinvention and celebration. This exhibition showcases the myriad ways, both conventional and contemporary, that visual artists interpret the notion of the book, the written page, and/or the book illustration. Submissions may include artist’s books(all media), individual book illustrations, zines, graphic novels, and comics. All traditional book forms as well as unbound, reworked, hybrid and deconstructed examples are welcome.
