Sixth Annual Juried Summer Exhibition

A year after celebrating its fifth annual exhibition by featuring five site-specific installations, the Tufts University Art Gallery went “back to basics” in 2009 with an open call to all professional artists living and/or with a studio in three of Tufts’ host communities (Grafton, Medford, and Somerville). The 2009 call yielded 90 submissions, a response emblematic of the area’s vital arts scene. The 36 selected artists represent a variety of media, styles and themes. Among these artists are familiar names pursuing new directions and newcomers who submitted for the first time this year.
