December 6 – January 18, 2024

Courthouse Gallery Fine Art

Artists Reception: Wednesday, December 6, 5–7pm

The Mind’s Eye: Turning Inward explores the transition from summer to fall and winter. People naturally retreat indoors this time of year physically, and mentally. The hustle and bustle of summer has subsided, the sunlight begins to wane, and the days get shorter, and colder. The Mind’s Eye invites Courthouse Gallery artists, and guest artists, to reflect on this seasonal change, to push boundaries, and to create from within. The results to this challenge are intriguing. Below are comments and statements by a selection of the artists in the show.

Participating Artists: Jeffery Becton, Lise Bécu, Judy Belasco, Ard Berge, Ragna Bruno, Tom Curry, Heidi Daub, Kate Emlen, Elaine Eskesen, Rick Fox, Philip Frey, June Grey, William Irvine, Joseph Keiffer, Philip Koch, Sarah LaFontaine, Rosie Moore, Emily Muir, John Neville, Linda Packard, Stephen Porter, Alison Rector, Robert Shillady, Lilian Day Thorpe.
