Art In BloomThis bi-annual event benefits local artists and the Londonderry Historical Society.
Every two years, the GMG invites local artists to display their art work at the Custer Sharp House, home of the Londonderry Arts & Historical Society. Art work is paired with floral interpretations created by GMG members to capture and complement the theme and color of each painting, watercolor and other artistic creations.
The Custer Sharp House, a perfect venue for this exhibit and sale, was the summer residence of Bernadine Custer Sharp, a prolific 20th-century American painter, illustrator and WPA muralist who worked in New York City and summered in Vermont. A percentage of the proceeds from the sale of the artwork is donated to the Londonderry Art & Historical Society to support ongoing renovations at the Custer Sharp House. |

This year's event, exhibiting work from June 17-22, included paintings, sculpture, photography, ceramics and textiles. Featured artists and photographers exhibited an array of works which represented the natural beauty of Vermont at its best. The event was enormously successful, and surely inspired both novice and well seasoned gardeners alike. Over 100 attendees enjoyed the opening reception, 74 patrons visited over the course of the event, and approximately $3000 was raised.
