Tuesday Artists’ Group Pop Up at GALA

The Galleries at LynnArts are currently hosting an engaging and exuberant exhibition by the Tuesday Artists Group, a newly-formed collective whose first show is a bold testament to what can blossom when artists are given space, support, and shared purpose. On view through July 20th, the pop-up show features a compelling range of experimental and collaborative works created over the past six months in weekly sessions and museum visits.

What’s immediately striking is the breadth and variety of artistic approaches represented. From meticulous realism to expressive abstraction, this show resists stylistic uniformity—and in doing so, underscores the rich, layered possibilities of group-based artmaking. One of the unifying threads, however, is the use of vibrant and enchanting color. Across mediums and techniques, color becomes a language of joy, reflection, and play.

A standout moment within the show is a wall devoted to a shared theme: boats. Each artist has interpreted this motif in their own voice, resulting in a fascinating dialogue of perspectives. Some render boats with precision and quietude, anchored in realism; others dissolve the forms into abstraction, allowing gesture and palette to evoke motion, memory, or metaphor. The juxtaposition is both delightful and revealing, showcasing the unique vision each artist brings to a common starting point.

The group’s collaborative spirit culminates in a silent auction to be held during the artist reception on Friday, July 18th, from 4:30 to 7 PM. Works created throughout the group’s journey will be available at accessible price points—an excellent opportunity for collectors and supporters to take home original art while investing directly in the group’s future. Proceeds will help fund much-needed art supplies, ensuring this dynamic and inclusive group can continue its meaningful work.

In a time when community-centered, grassroots art spaces are more vital than ever, the Tuesday Artists Group offers a fresh, inspiring model. Their debut show is not just an exhibition—it’s a celebration of process, experimentation, and collective creativity. Don’t miss it.
