SUMMARY:Celebrating 100 Years of Concord Art and our founder\, Elizabeth Wentworth Roberts
DESCRIPTION:We’re celebrating 100 years of Concord Art! Our founder\, Elizabeth Wentworth Roberts (1871-1927)\, was not only a dedicated philanthropist\, but a talented artist as well. This May\, we invite you to visit Concord Art during gallery hours (Tuesday through Saturday\, 10am to 4:30pm\, and Sunday\, 12pm to 4pm) to see the paintings and etchings of EWR in our newly displayed Permanent Collection. \nElizabeth Wentworth Roberts incorporated Concord Art in 1922 creating a Board of Directors that included Daniel Chester French as the president. She started to install exhibitions in locations around Concord Center in 1915 to raise money for the war effort\, support her fellow artists\, and bring the art and artists of Boston to Concord. In 1922 she purchased\, and hired Lois Lilley Howe to renovate\, the current historic John Ball House at 37 Lexington Road for exhibitions that included her contemporaries John Singer Sargent and Mary Cassatt. \nAn admired painter\, her work is in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum\, the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston and the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts. She created canvases of beauty\, simplicity and emotion. Vose Gallery in Boston currently carries her work. \nImage credit: Elizabeth Wentworth Roberts\, “Women Sewing for Belgian Refugees\,” 1915\, oil on canvas board\, 10.75 x 13.75 inches\, Permanent Collection \nPARKING & ACCESS: Free street parking is available.
