The Acorn Center for the Performing Arts transforms into a visual art space with our initiative, Art at The Acorn.
On View:
A Poet's Eye featuring Susan Ward Trestrail
We are proud to welcome artist Susan Ward Trestrail and her exhibit A Poet's Eye. Describing herself as “a photographer with a poet’s eye,” Susan’s work explores identity, color, and the quiet emotional resilience of women navigating change.
Please join us for an Open House with the Artist on Saturday, August 15th from 11am to 1pm ET an Artist Talk and Q&A at 11:30am ET.
We remain open for Artist Submissions for consideration for a future exhibition.
Our current exhibition, A Poet's Eye, will be on view through September. Artwork exhibitions rotate once approximately every 3-4 months. One Artist is featured during each exhibition/rotation period. Depending on size, generally up to ten to twenty pieces can be displayed.
Upcoming rotation periods are:
- June through September 2026: Susan Ward Trestrail
- October through December 2026
- January through March 2027
- April 2027 and beyond...
Interested artists should fill out an Art at The Acorn Artist Submission Form.
The Art at The Acorn Artist Submission Form remains open for submissions as we consider interested artists for future rotation periods.
If selected to be a featured artist for Art at The Acorn, additional exhibition terms will be discussed and a written agreement will be required. Transportation and installation of artwork is the responsibility of the artist. Artists must also provide their own insurance coverage and have the ability to take payment for the sale of their work.
Please contact Nikki Gauthier with any questions.
