2020 is the 125th anniversary of the TW Wood Gallery!
The Gallery has an exciting lineup of exhibits to share with you.
The Gallery has selected Vermont Curators to orchestrate a series of very special shows for the gallery this year.
Each exhibition is designed to represent the history of the gallery and / or the history of artists in Vermont over the past one hundred and twenty-five years. We are celebrating artists who have been connected to the art scene in Vermont and are a vital part of its history and contemporary culture.
We look forward a vibrant year!
