The Lyme Art Association is honored to present Earl Grenville Killeen Solo Show: An Artist for Today, Tomorrow, and Always, on view from July 1 through July 17, 2025. This special exhibition celebrates the artistic vision and lifelong contributions of Elected Artist Earl Grenville Killeen.

A master of color, mood, and memory, Killeen’s work has long captivated collectors with its sensitivity and imagination. In a remarkable act of generosity, the artist has donated the majority of his personal collection to the Lyme Art Association. Proceeds from this exhibition will support the Association’s educational programs and special projects—ensuring that art continues to flourish in the community he loves.

Jeff Cooley, owner of The Cooley Gallery in Old Lyme and long-time friend of Earl Killeen, notes, “A fine work of art combines high craft with deep soul on the part of the artist. I have had the honor of knowing and working with Earl Killeen for twenty years and I have consistently seen him using his intellect and deeply introspective view of the world around him, along with highly practiced craft, to create fascinating images.

Visitors to the exhibition will find a broad range of Killeen’s framed and unframed works, available at specially reduced prices. This is a unique opportunity for collectors, art lovers, and the public to acquire a piece of Killeen’s artistic legacy and give his works the good homes he hopes for.

A public reception will be held on  Saturday, July 12, from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.  All are welcome to attend and celebrate the life and work of this beloved artist.

Gallery hours are  Tuesday through Sunday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., or by appointment. To learn more, visit www.LymeArtAssociation.org. To explore more about Earl Grenville Killeen’s work, visit earlgrenvillekilleenart.com

 DR. WESTCHESTERSON

SUNDAY, JULY 13

PLAYING IN THE TAP ROOM

https://knickmusic.com/events/2025/07/13-dr-westchesterson

Show Time 8pm | Free | 21+

drwestchesterson.com

While Dr. Westchesterson is best known as an artist who dares to cross genres- the common denominator between all of his work is a knack for high quality songwriting. Whether he’s writing a hip hop banger or a yacht rock period piece Dr. Westchesterson’s journey begins alone at a piano. And in his twenty-plus year residency as the “house Piano Bar guy” at Captain Nick’s -Block Island’s premiere live music venue- The Dr. has honed his skills not only as a songwriter but also as a first-rate entertainer.

Weaving together a blend of storytelling, original music and covers by songwriters that inspire him Dr. Westchesterson has discovered the secret to holding captive an audience’s collective imagination. His finely curated repertoire of cover songs is a treasure trove of well-known hits and hidden gems by the likes of Bob Dylan, Tom Waits, Billy Joel, Elton John, Leonard Cohen, Randy Newman, Harry Nilsson, The Beatles and The Band to name only a few.

With the release of his latest (and much buzzed about) modern-day yacht rock masterpiece, “Better Days Ahead”; D-Dubs has been performing full band arrangements of the album tracks with a band of top-tier musicians. However, it’s the stripped-down versions of the songs performed by The Dr. alone at a piano that allow listeners a taste of the songs’ main ingredients.

But no matter the scenario or venue- Dr. Westchesterson’s main objective is to make sure his audience has fun. So, when the flashy outfits, booming sound systems and flashing multi-colored laser-lights are gone and it’s just The Dr. at his piano, fun is served up in its most potently distilled form. Don’t pass up the opportunity to catch one of Dr. Westchesterson’s solo Piano Bar shows where -truth be told- he’ll probably still be wearing a flashy outfit of some sort.

Do you wish you could have more of the kinds of conversations you have late at night where for some reason, you feel safe talking about the things you actually care about?

Bring your friends (or come by yourself) and spend your Thursday night at an event where you know everyone else is there for the same reason.

We'll be offering "big talk" conversational prompts on them to get you started, and we'll have lots of structure to make sure that you actually talk to people and that it's not awkward. Not feeling like answering a particular question? No worries, we'll have plenty to choose from, like, "When are you the happiest?" and, "If you were going to become close friends with me, what would I need to know about you?" We'll give you ground rules to make sure you feel comfortable and safe sharing as much of yourself as possible while still feeling in complete control of how much you divulge.

Secure your spot here.

The Lyme Art Association is honored to present Earl Grenville Killeen Solo Show: An Artist for Today, Tomorrow, and Always, on view from July 1 through July 17, 2025. This special exhibition celebrates the artistic vision and lifelong contributions of Elected Artist Earl Grenville Killeen.

A master of color, mood, and memory, Killeen’s work has long captivated collectors with its sensitivity and imagination. In a remarkable act of generosity, the artist has donated the majority of his personal collection to the Lyme Art Association. Proceeds from this exhibition will support the Association’s educational programs and special projects—ensuring that art continues to flourish in the community he loves.

Jeff Cooley, owner of The Cooley Gallery in Old Lyme and long-time friend of Earl Killeen, notes, “A fine work of art combines high craft with deep soul on the part of the artist. I have had the honor of knowing and working with Earl Killeen for twenty years and I have consistently seen him using his intellect and deeply introspective view of the world around him, along with highly practiced craft, to create fascinating images.

Visitors to the exhibition will find a broad range of Killeen’s framed and unframed works, available at specially reduced prices. This is a unique opportunity for collectors, art lovers, and the public to acquire a piece of Killeen’s artistic legacy and give his works the good homes he hopes for.

A public reception will be held on  Saturday, July 12, from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.  All are welcome to attend and celebrate the life and work of this beloved artist.

Gallery hours are  Tuesday through Sunday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., or by appointment. To learn more, visit www.LymeArtAssociation.org. To explore more about Earl Grenville Killeen’s work, visit earlgrenvillekilleenart.com

 Websites for Women Artists 101

This professional workshop series is designed for women, non-binary, and women-identifying individuals working within the arts sector, Wednesdays 7/16-7/30, 6-8p (last session Artist Talk date/time TBA). Focusing on informative discussion on enhancing artistic skills and creative opportunities, this will be a 3-Part Series, by the Pattagansett Art Center, in collaboration with Spark Makerspace, and the Lyman Allyn Art Museum. Participants will learn from guest speakers covering essential topics in creative development. This program is generously sponsored by Breezeline.

The program aims to empower creatives by providing them with the tools and knowledge necessary to thrive in the competitive creative landscape, fostering a supportive community that encourages collaboration and growth. Sessions 1-3 are only open to 8 participants, so please please register early. The 4th session is optional and open to the Public.

Important:

Class Fee is non-refundable. Please plan accordingly. Ages 16+

The class requires a laptop. If you do not have a laptop, please contact make@sparkmakerspace.org in advance, and we will do our best to accommodate.

Session 1: July 16, 6-8p

About the Creative: Biography and Statements

(Creating an about section through interactive activities)

Every website has an about section. This session will explore and engage participants and the power of short, succinct personal biographies. This is an essential framework for a creative practice and provides insight into intentions, themes, accomplishments, and context for an audience or viewer to experience your work. Through guided individual and group activities, we will engage in the creation of a general creative biography and a more body of work-specific statement. We will learn to better understand our own vision and motivations, along with important recommendations, as our artist journey evolves.

Session 2: July 23, 6-8p

The Impact of Visual Branding for Creatives

(Look, Branding, Documentation, Photo cube, lighting, documentation, pricing of your work)

In a digital world, elevating your creative look or aesthetic is an essential part of visual language. This session will dive into the importance of documenting artwork, developing a story, contemporary pricing, demystifying , and building a professional brand, and a touch on contemporary market analysis. Participants will learn the basic principles of photographing artwork, creating a consistent style, and understanding the process of establishing an online identity.

Session 3: July 30, 6-8p

A Comprehensive Approach to Building Your Artist Website

(Building a website, and Digital Footprint)

Utilizing the skills and techniques from previous sessions, participants will learn how to build an effective artist website. This session will provide step-by-step instructions to navigate the process of website creation, uploading your artwork images, and promoting your practice. Websites can seem intimidating, but we will work to simplify and demystify this topic!

Session 4: TBA

Women in the Arts Open Community Forum

To celebrate this series, we are hosting a networking event and panel discussion at the Lyman Allyn Art Museum. This Community Forum will feature participation from Suzie Ferras of the San Francisco Arts Commission and Creative IQ Studio & Gallery, alongside a panel of both established professionals and emerging local artists. Centered on the shared goal of uplifting and connecting creative women, the event aims to foster meaningful dialogue, build professional networks, and strengthen community ties both locally and beyond.

Ashley Campbell and Thor Jensen form a unique meeting of musical genres as the duo Campbell/Jensen. With Ashley coming from the world of country and Americana and Thor having a diverse background from rock to gypsy jazz, they create a fresh sound as a duo. Ashley Campbell, daughter of country legend Glen Campbell began her career playing in her father's band on several world tours and has found success as a solo artist in the country music scene; most notably with her debut single "Remembering" which she wrote for her father. Her original music has taken her all over the world, from China to Japan, to the mainstage at London's O2 Arena to opening for Kris Kristofferson and the Bellamy Brothers. She has also been spotlighted for her banjo playing with Rascal Flatts in the music video for their hit single "Banjo". Thor Jensen, a virtuoso guitarist and songwriter from New York has traveled many different roads. From touring the world with Hazmat Modine, playing Americana with Quiet Life opening for the likes of Dr. Dog, Portugal. The Man and Shovels and Rope, then onto joining the Stephane Wrembel Band, playing the music of Django Reinhardt, performing at Carnegie Hall and all over the world, all the while immersing himself in New York's jazz scene. Ashley and Thor started Campbell/Jensen in late 2021 and have been playing music together ever since. Both being strong instrumentalists in addition to the combination of Thor's deep baritone and Ashley's clear as a bell vocals, together they make a one of a kind blend. Their debut album “Turtle Cottage” is out now!

 This beginner-friendly class is an introduction to the relief process, the technique used in the oldest forms of printmaking. By creating a single-color linocut print, you will learn the basics of relief printing. We will explore types of carving blocks, inks, and papers, and you will learn how to prepare your carving block, transfer your design, and carve and ink the block. You will make several prints, both by hand printing and using the printing press. (After this class, members will be certified to use the press for relief printing.)

Please read through the relief printing handout (found here) before class, and bring a simple design no larger than 5x8 inches. A good beginner design has a bold image, thick lines, and no fine details. Keeping it simple will help you avoid frustration and allow you to focus on the fundamentals of printmaking. You can find some great ideas by searching for free black and white vector art. Several design options will also be available to choose from in class.

Certification for Members: Printing Press Members who demonstrate proper use of the printing press can be certified for independent access to the tool.

Thanks to generous donations from The Frank Loomis Palmer Foundation , prices of our certification classes are greatly reduced.

Get your tickets today!

Ages: 15+

Please note that the class fee is non-refundable. Plan accordingly.

This program is generously sponsored by Breezeline.

The program aims to empower creatives by providing them with the tools and knowledge necessary to thrive in the competitive creative landscape, fostering a supportive community that encourages collaboration and growth.

About the Creative: Biography and Statements

(Creating an about section through interactive activities)

Every website has an about section. This session will explore and engage participants and the power of short, succinct personal biographies. This is an essential framework for a creative practice and provides insight into intentions, themes, accomplishments, and context for an audience or viewer to experience your work. Through guided individual and group activities, we will engage in the creation of a general creative biography and a more body of work-specific statement. We will learn to better understand our own vision and motivations, along with important recommendations, as our artist journey evolves.

Session 2: July 23, 6-8p

The Impact of Visual Branding for Creatives

(Look, Branding, Documentation, Photo cube, lighting, documentation, pricing of your work)

In a digital world, elevating your creative look or aesthetic is an essential part of visual language. This session will dive into the importance of documenting artwork, developing a story, contemporary pricing, demystifying , and building a professional brand, and a touch on contemporary market analysis. Participants will learn the basic principles of photographing artwork, creating a consistent style, and understanding the process of establishing an online identity.

Session 3: July 30, 6-8p

A Comprehensive Approach to Building Your Artist Website

(Building a website, and Digital Footprint)

Utilizing the skills and techniques from previous sessions, participants will learn how to build an effective artist website. This session will provide step-by-step instructions to navigate the process of website creation, uploading your artwork images, and promoting your practice. Websites can seem intimidating, but we will work to simplify and demystify this topic!

Session 4: TBA

Women in the Arts Open Community Forum

To celebrate this series, we are hosting a networking event and panel discussion at the Lyman Allyn Art Museum. This Community Forum will feature participation from Suzie Ferras of the San Francisco Arts Commission and Creative IQ Studio & Gallery, alongside a panel of both established professionals and emerging local artists. Centered on the shared goal of uplifting and connecting creative women, the event aims to foster meaningful dialogue, build professional networks, and strengthen community ties both locally and beyond.
