Welcome to our new artist members. Unlike other art center organizations, New Hope Arts has not always offered a members exhibitions. Robin Larsen founded NHArts in 2002 with the concept of a regional exchange for all the arts and our mission statement always has reflected diversity in our programming to include literary and performing arts.

The opportunity for member visual artists began in 2014 with New Hope...New York a theme show judged by a New York gallerist. Every year thereafter we offered a Salon exhibition to showcase our talented  and diverse members. Curiously, in 2020 our Member Salon was themed  2020 - Embrace the Past, Celebrate the Present, Dream the Future, an unfortunate conundrum  when two months later we were in the midst of the pandemic.

In the last year performing venues have truly felt the pressures of our virtual age. Currently New Hope Arts has expanded to more visual art in-gallery exhibitions to fill the calendar since we are able to open with appropriate covid restrictions in place. We continue to thank you, artists, enthusiasts and viewers at large - for your support in this transitional year.
