The Brattleboro galleries have so much in store for you…
Don’t miss out Brattleboro Museum & Art Center’s pop-up installation by BMAC’s inaugural Climate Change Arists in Residence, Elizabeth Billings, Evie Lovett, and Andrea Wasserman. The installation will incorporate tree rubbings similar to the ones the artists described in an interview earlier this year, but with “shades of blankness” visible from one direction and cyanotype bark rubbings “holding the blue of the air, sky, and water” from another. The artists note, “It’s our choice.”
Each Gallery Walk we invite you to hop on the Free ArtSEE tour with a local expert. Meet at 6:00 at Chicken Rex outside of Harmony Collective (No RSVP needed).
JULY: “Photographers: How did they do that?” with Jadian Bryan of Insight Photography. Jadian is an artist who uses photography, ephemera, and objects to construct visual narratives. As a teenager, she learned how to shoot film and print in a darkroom, an experience that led her to find her voice through art and photography. Through her work with In-Sight, she remains dedicated to cultivating space for moments of curiosity, excitement, and encouragement in and outside of the classroom. It is within these creative spaces that she believes we can nurture genuine care for all members of our communities by listening to and seeing the work they create.
Join in at 5:00 with a free guided Brattleboro Words Trail Tour. The surprising, artistic, community-created audio stories that explore America’s most storied small town! Meeting up at 118 Elliot no RSVP needed.

Join in at Pop-Up Art Stations around town during Gallery Walk. Our themed stations will focus on involvement and connection with all. Let’s bring art into the streets! Be part of the art-making at our pop-up art stations at Harmony TUNNEL and Harmony PARK! Each month has a theme and features local artists, organizations and arts engagement for all.
Step up and speak, sing, or make something that rings true with what matters to you. Your voice can take the form of a song, poem, story or artwork. Sonic Blanket will collaborate with local organizations, sharing their works and inspiring us all to step up in our community. We’ll have an open mic, art stations, places to exhibit, questions to engage and ways to get involved. How do you want to “Set up”?
At the entrance of Harmony Lot will be the Third Eye Collective presenting performance art!
