In September 2024, The Jonathan Fisher House will host a new exhibit, “Maine Artists Explore the Legacy of Jonathan Fisher," at the Blue Hill Public Library.
19 Maine artists have submitted their work to the show, which features art across many media inspired by Fisher’s artistic legacy, from his use of the camera obscura to create “A Morning View of Blue Hill,” to the incredible personality and specificity of his “Scripture Animals” woodcuts, his botanical illustrations and his bookmaking skills. The show is on display at the library in the Britton Gallery and Howard Room for the month of September, from Tuesday Sept. 3 through Saturday Sept. 28 (subject to the Howard Room meeting schedule).
An opening reception for the show will be held on Wednesday, September 18 from 6-8 PM at the Blue Hill Public Library at 5 Parker Point Rd. Artists will be present and everyone is invited to celebrate this beautiful exhibit!
