Reception July 29th | 6 pm - 7 pm
Exhibit on view through Aug. 26
The Lotvin Family Gallery
at Hopkinton Center for the Arts

You are invited to a public gallery reception on Friday, July 29th from 6-7 pm. All are welcome to attend.

The Bold & Beautiful Artist Exhibition is about addressing who we are, what we stand for and how we allow other people's perception of us to affect how we see ourselves. “The things that make me boldly different, make me beautiful!”

Eversley was teased and called a nerd when he was younger and was compared to Urkel (a nerdy fictional TV character). He now embraces his nerd persona and created abstract art about a character he calls “the nerd." He took a negative situation and turned it into a positive one and now shares that story with teens and adults through his The Bold & Beautiful art and writing workshops. It is about self-love, anti-bullying, and perception.

Featuring work from 35 artists, the exhibit is now on view and open to the public through August 26, 2022 in the Lotvin Family Gallery at the Hopkinton Center for the Arts (98 Hayden Rowe St. in Hopkinton, MA).

Gallery hours: Monday-Friday, 10am to 6pm and Saturday, 10am to 2pm.
