Greetings!

This week we're presenting the Kingston Gallery, Bannister Gallery and The Clark Art Institute.


Don't wing it this Thanksgiving weekend, check out this week's featured exhibitions and plan a family trip around New England to see a show dedicated to the lives of two boundary-pushing artists, a group show to benefit a charity or a historic exhibition that looks at how art and science collide.


Make sure to update your Artscope Magazine App in the app store and leave a review to get the complete experience for our November/December 2022 issue, out now!


As regulations regarding Covid-19 continue to change, please visit gallery or museum websites to confirm their current hours of operation.

The Bannister Gallery presents Harriet and David Brisson: From High Craft to Hypergraphics which features the art of Harriet and David Brisson, two artists who "provided mutual support and criticism of each other's work" and "[worked] intensely together." David began as an abstract expressionist before he began attempting to visualize "higher-dimensional" objects. Harriet on the other hand moved from ceramics to working in glass and neon. Both artists work complements the other's and create a holistic view of a creative duo. The gallery is open from 12 to 8 p.m., Monday through Friday. The Bannister Gallery is located at 600 Mt. Pleasant Avenue, Providence, RI. For more information, please visit here.

Hello, neighbor; it’s been a while. Do you fondly remember strolling leisurely through studios on a crisp fall weekend to take in the wonderful array of talent open studios has to offer? .... We do too.


On December 3 & 4, after a long four-year hiatus, Vernon Street Studios will open their doors to host their Fall/Winter open studios.


While art creation can be a solo practice, art is best appreciated when celebrated with others and the artists of 6 & 20 Vernon Street are thrilled to welcome the public into their workspaces once again.


Dec. 3 and 4, 12 - 6 p.m.
