SUMMARY:Newburyport Art presents our two February Exhibitions: Elements\, and Featured Artist: Jennifer Day
DESCRIPTION:Newburyport Art (NAA) is thrilled to announce two new exhibitions opening on February 1st! On view in the Sargent and Hartson Galleries is Elements\, an exhibition that responds to elements of nature or “elemental” feelings/experiences in an artist’s life. Running alongside Elements is Featured Artist Jennifer Day\, on view in the Hills Gallery. Additionally\, the Winter Gift Shop will open on Feb 1. A joint reception for Elements and Jennifer Day will be held on Saturday\, February 8th\, from 4:00-6:00 PM. \nElements features 130 artworks by 99 artists from the Newburyport area and beyond. Artists responded with depictions of the natural landscape\, mixed media abstractions of fire\, water and ice\, sculptures reminiscent of rock and clay\, and powerful commentary on the current state of our environment. \nIn the next door Hills Gallery\, Featured Artist Jennifer Day utilizes black oil paint on a gessoed panel to reveal the drama of water without the infinite options of local color. Gray scale sensitivity and range is her goal. To achieve this\, she works reductively by rubbing the surface and scraping her finger methodically through the paint to reveal the light beneath. Jennifer works between two opposites: the geometry of the picture plane versus the challenge of the nebulous\, the fleeting\, and the impulse of nature to escape the plane altogether. \nRunning concurrently alongside Elements and Featured Artist Jennifer Day is the Winter Gift Shop\, on view until March 29th. \nThe galleries are free and open to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 11:00am–5:00pm and Sunday from 1:00pm–5:00pm. Newburyport Art is closed on Mondays. The ground-floor Hills Gallery has an accessible entrance. More information\, as well as an online gallery is available at newburyportart.org. \nFounded in 1948\, Newburyport Art is dedicated to promoting and exhibiting members’ work and to providing art education and access to the visual arts for the entire community.

SUMMARY:Slide; A Quest for Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Written and performed by (Caren Lyn Manuel) Tackett (of Broadway’s Hair\, Rent\, High Fidelity\, The Times They Are A Changing\, & Brooklyn)\, Slides artfully and open-mindedly explores a subject that is often not a part of the cultural conversation; the misdiagnosis\, mistreatment\, and misplacement of those diagnosed with mental illness in our society. Slides is a fictionalized account of the author’s journey\, accessible to all in one uplifting evening saturated with multiple arts disciplines including music\, painting\, movement\, theatre and ice skating. That’s right. Ice skating.

SUMMARY:Mike Dawes\, guitar
DESCRIPTION:Regarded as one of the world’s most creative modern fingerstyle guitarists with a repertoire spanning original viral videos and popular arrangements\, Mike Dawes also enjoys mainstream chart success performing alongside Justin Hayward of The Moody Blues. He is an English guitarist known for composing\, arranging and performing multiple parts simultaneously on a single guitar. \n“He’s one of the finest I’ve ever heard”\n– Rick Beato of Youtube \nABOUT THE ARTIST \nMike Dawes was named ‘Best Acoustic Guitarist in the World’ two years in a row (2017 & 2018) by Total Guitar Magazine & MusicRadar reader polls\, with numerous 2nd place rankings in the proceeding years. YouTube personality Rick Beato named Mike “one of the finest acoustic guitar players in the world.” \nHis debut release\, a solo guitar arrangement of Gotye’s ‘Somebody That I Used to Know\,’ quickly became a viral hit with tens of millions of views on YouTube. This success has been duplicated and expanded upon numerous times since with songs like ‘One\,’ ‘The Impossible\,’ and ‘Jump’ across multiple video platforms. \nHis reputation has invited him opportunities to collaborate with GRAMMY Award-winning artists such as Tommy Emmanuel\, with whom he recorded the duet record “Accomplice Vol. 3\,” and the GRAMMY-nominated metal band Periphery\, with whom Mike joined on their 2024 double single release. \nMike is featured on multiple Justin Hayward live releases\, including Spirits…Live\, which debuted at #2 on the US Billboard Chart. Dawes also has a strong reputation as an educator\, acting as a columnist for Guitar World and Acoustic Guitar magazines\, as well as teaching guitar masterclasses all over the world\, creating apps\, publishing degree-level literature\, appearing as a TV judge on SKY TV’s Guitar Star and more. \nRecently\, he contributed electric guitars to Mentrix and Gareth Croker’s stunning soundtrack to Ubisoft’s Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown\, with other session work featured on TV shows such as AMC’s Better Call Saul. \nMike’s passion\, however\, is performing. He has shared the stage with acts as diverse as Tommy Emmanuel\, Christopher Cross\, Periphery\, The Aristocrats\, Justin Hayward\, and the Athens State Orchestra in 2023 alone. \nHis third studio album\, Galactic Acid\, released in August 2024.
