Art along the trail – photo by Theresa Herendeen
Art on Trail Show thru September 26
The public is invited to enjoy Art on the Trail along the Hopkinton Center Trail.. As you walk the trail you can view nine new sculpture installations created by residents of Hopkinton and nearby towns including Lauren Scheuer, and Cathy Weaver Taylor of Upton. Some of the projects were produced with the help of community groups such as the Michael Lisnow Respite Center, the Senior Center, Serenity House, and the Girl Scouts, with others contributed by individual artists. The exhibition will be on display through September 26.
On September 19 at 2 p.m. more than 20 poets will read poems inspired by the artwork displayed along the Art on the Trail exhibit.
This exhibition is made possible through a collaboration of the Upper Charles Trail Committee, Hopkinton Center for the Arts, the Hopkinton Area Land Trust, sculptor Michael Alfano, Cheryl Perreault, and Polly Brown. Please join us in celebrating the arts in Hopkinton at the inaugural Art on the Trail exhibition!
You can find the entrance to the trail across the street from Hopkinton Lumber.
