SUMMARY:3rd Annual Anchor Academy Student Art Show
DESCRIPTION:The Groundwork Gallery is happy to host the 3rd Annual Anchor Academy Art Exhibit! This event highlights beautiful works that were created during Anchor Academy’s Art Class throughout the year. \nJoin us for the opening reception on Thursday\, April 11th\, from 4pm to 7pm at Groundwork Gallery\, at 1213 Purchase Street in New Bedford\, MA. Our doors are open to the public Monday through Friday\, 9am-2pm. \n*Use the entrance on Maxfield Street* \nThis year’s edition focuses on students’ answers to the question\, Now What? All school year long each assignment while containing technical skill building components also existed within a theme. Asking the big questions that artists grapple with is a key driver to revealing the meaning behind student artwork. Specifically\, a student may be asked to render a realistic drawing of a still-life but furthermore they are challenged to keep in the fore how to answer the question\, Now What? This practice has led to the type of maker experience that values expression\, beauty\, and truth equally.

SUMMARY:Double Take with Robin Nunes and Barbara Healy
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Groundwork Gallery on May 9th at 5pm for an art opening reception featuring artists Robin Nunes and Barbara Healy. This is a free event and open to the public. Double Take will be on display from May 1st – June 1st. Guests are welcome to drop-in for a gallery visit during our business hours Monday-Friday 9am-2pm. \nRobin Nunes is a full time award-winning fine artist who lives and paints in South Dartmouth. She is a member of the Attleboro Art Museum\, Southcoast Artists\, Four Corners Gallery\, and Westport Art Group. Robin is from Chesapeake\, Virginia\, where she would often visit the capturing canals and beautiful coastlines in her backyard. Her art journey began in the mangroves of Key West\, and has migrated to the beautiful South Coastal region of Southern Massachusetts. Her love of Nature has brought her to the love of painting en plein air. Beaches and birds are her favorite subjects to paint.\n\nWhether it’s painting seascapes or landscapes\, her use of a palette knife adds a whimsical and playful approach to her art. She is currently represented by Norton Gallery\, Padanaram\, Attleboro Art Museum\, Attleboro\, MA\, Four Corners Gallery\, Historical Tiverton\, RI\, and Spring Bull Gallery\, Newport RI\, Fakes and Forgeries Exhibit. Ms Nunes is a graduate from UMASS and in addition to being an artist\, is the author of The Nunes Family Cookbook and had her first book signing at the Miami International Book Fair.\n\n\nBarbara Healy is a contemporary artist working in oils and acrylics. A Connecticut native\, Barbara fell in love with the South Coast\, and her husband Shaun\, while getting her BFA at UMASS Dartmouth and stayed. Her studio in Dartmouth\, MA has been on the South Coast Artists Open Studio Tour for 13 years.  She is a board member of Westport Art Group\, a Juried Artist Member of the Cape Cod Art Center\, and also teaches painting. Her award-winning paintings are in Massachusetts and Rhode Island galleries and corporate collections including Bristol County Savings Bank in New Bedford and Tobey Hospital in Wareham.\n“My paintings are inspired by the diverse colors of light in the beautiful coastal landscape where I live.  I frequently paint plein air\, using all my senses to share my vision. Paintings capture that feeling of peace and joy that nature gives. I look for what is unique\, to convey a sense of place. Although often evoked by a fleeting moment\, I translate in paint to transcend time. Brushstrokes over glimpses of color intentionally reveal some of the painting process and layering enables me to create luminous color. Although I love oil paints on canvas\, I am always experimenting.”

SUMMARY:Since We Last Spoke: A UMassD Illustration Alumni Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Join us during aha! June 13th 4pm-7pm for an opening art exhibition featuring the UMassD Illustration Alumni and a live musical performance by Skyjelly! Since We Last Spoke will be on display at Groundwork June 3-June 28th. Visitors are welcome M-F 9am-2pm\n.\nGroundwork is thrilled to welcome UMassD graduates for an exhibition that celebrates the art of illustration. Since losing the Star Store\, faculty and students of UMassD’s College of Visual Performing Arts have been eager to reconnect with the New Bedford art community\, and this exhibition is the seed of new beginnings.\n.\n\n“125 years ago\, the Quest Center was part of the Swain School of Design\, a creative force during New Bedford’s manufacturing heyday. Now a part of UMass Dartmouth’s College of Visual Performing Arts (CVPA)\, those art\, design\, and artisanry students are making their way through a very different world. Graduates today have to be creative not just with the work that they create\, but in how they generate and find opportunities for themselves. In exhibiting here at Groundwork\, these UMass Dartmouth graduates are harkening back to CVPA’s roots. This exhibition also includes work that celebrates Pride month. The LGBTQIA+ community is well represented in the world of illustration\, and has contributed in major ways to the field.\n.\nIllustration is art that speaks to people in a direct\, accessible way\, even when it is un-commissioned work. It does not need to be attached to a text. Recent Illustration alumni are organizing community art events\, publishing webcomics\, exhibiting at local festivals\, illustrating Marvel characters\, tarot card decks\, murals\, solo gallery exhibitions\, and more. They cover a broad swath of creative output that can attach itself to nearly any field. The work on exhibit here ranges widely in style\, process\, and subject matter\, but even then it does not cover all of what illustration can be.”\n.\n\n– Jess Worby\, Assistant Teaching Professor\, Illustration\n\n\nCollege of Visual and Performing Arts at UMD\n\n.\n\nThis event is supported in part by the Wicked Cool Places grant funded by the City of New Bedford & facilitated by NB Creative

SUMMARY:Art Reception for Elemental: universal energy flow of life
DESCRIPTION:ELEMENTAL: Universal energy flow of life \nConcept and Curation: Tammi J. Meehan \nCommunication through frequency and vibration is the inspiration for ELEMENTAL. Quantum Physics and the influence of music\, energy\, vibration and frequencies on the natural world and beyond is the groundwork for the exhibition. Cell communication has its own musical intonations. These emulations of flow\, similar to a song\, a pause between notes\, can help heal or uplift the energetic resonance of a being and speaks to the silence within. \nThought is tangible and in fact negative thoughts have more energetic weight to them than positive ones. The reason we tend toward more negative than positive thoughts is because it’s simply easier. The birth of the universe\, consciousness itself\, originated from sound\, vibration\, frequency. What holds all material form together is constantly vibrating\, an energetic current. Artists invited to this show illuminate their unique observations of energetic impulses from the natural world including what is beyond the visible; imagination itself. Ideas pulse\, prod and push beyond the confines of the material world. \nThe artists depict flow\, cycles\, change\, sound and energetic frequencies. Drawing from material elements; wood\, air\, fire\, water\, the show expands to include portrayals of thoughts\, energetic frequencies and light itself. From the human vascular system\, Mycelial biomass\, or the influence of frequency on form\, the lens expands from micro to macro including cosmic elements and the unseen. The intention of the exhibition is to elucidate the most common\, fundamental element of all. In coaxing the viewer to expand the portals of their imagination the artists’ work collectively illicit a sense of discovery while honoring creativity and a reverence for the universal life force\, Prana or Ch’i. \nThis exhibition posits the existence of an additional element outside the realm of what is visible. In channeling this life force energy\, the artists dance it into the density of form. This primordial drive to create is the thread that binds us all together. In flow\, we align and co-create. \nList of Artists: \n\nMichael Hecht\nKirstin Ilse\nAmy Lund\nChristine Maiato FitzGerald\nTammi J. Meehan\nAmanda J. Moore\nChris Page\n\nExhibition dates are September 1st- October 17th. We welcome  the public to visit and enjoy this exhibition during our staffed hours Monday-Friday from 9:00am-2:00pm\, or by appointment. All works sold in our commission free gallery go directly into the pockets of the artists. \nThis event is supported in part by the Wicked Cool Places grant funded by the City of New Bedford\, through American Rescue Plan awards\, and its Arts\, Culture and Tourism Fund\, and is facilitated by New Bedford Creative at the NBEDC.

Artists invited to this show illuminate their unique observations of energetic impulses from the natural world including what is beyond the visible; imagination itself. Ideas pulse\, prod and push beyond the confines of the material world. \nThe artists depict flow\, cycles\, change\, sound and energetic frequencies. Drawing from material elements; wood\, air\, fire\, water\, the show expands to include portrayals of thoughts\, energetic frequencies and light itself. From the human vascular system\, Mycelial biomass\, or the influence of frequency on form\, the lens expands from micro to macro including cosmic elements and the unseen. The intention of the exhibition is to elucidate the most common\, fundamental element of all. In coaxing the viewer to expand the portals of their imagination the artists’ work collectively illicit a sense of discovery while honoring creativity and a reverence for the universal life force\, Prana or Ch’i. \nThis exhibition posits the existence of an additional element outside the realm of what is visible. In channeling this life force energy\, the artists dance it into the density of form. This primordial drive to create is the thread that binds us all together. In flow\, we align and co-create. \nList of Artists: \n\nMichael Hecht\nKirstin Ilse\nAmy Lund\nChristine Maiato FitzGerald\nTammi J. Meehan\nAmanda J. Moore\nChris Page\n\nExhibition dates are September 1st- October 17th. We welcome  the public to visit and enjoy this exhibition during our staffed hours Monday-Friday from 9:00am-2:00pm\, or by appointment. All works sold in our commission free gallery go directly into the pockets of the artists. \nThis event is supported in part by the Wicked Cool Places grant funded by the City of New Bedford\, through American Rescue Plan awards\, and its Arts\, Culture and Tourism Fund\, and is facilitated by New Bedford Creative at the NBEDC.

SUMMARY:Art Opening: All Growed Up by Jim Charette
DESCRIPTION:Join us for “All Growed Up\,” the fourth installment in a series of exhibitions by artist Jim Charette. \n“All Growed Up” showcases a remarkable 40-year journey since his days at Swain School in the late 1980s. This exhibition marks a homecoming to one of the former Swain School buildings at GWNB\, where Charette’s artistic path began. \nEvent Details\n📍: Groundwork Gallery\, New Bedford\, MA \n📅: Friday\, August 8th\, 2025 \n⏰: 6pm-8pm \nAbout the Exhibition\n“All Growed Up” reflects Charette’s evolution as an artist\, weaving together the threads of his career as a painter\, cartoonist\, tattoo artist\, and more. The series began with “Sad Little Boys” (2014) at The Abattoir in Kilburn Mills\, voted Best Show in the Southcoast by art critic Don Wilkinson for the New Bedford Standard Times. Followed by “An Orderly Chaos” (2018) at Douglass Gallery\, and “Still Playing with My Crayons” (2023) at Ignition Space in Fall River\, MA. \nDuring the 2023 exhibition\, Charette had a revelation while reflecting in the gallery. His seemingly disparate styles and career shifts were all connected. “I make the art of Jim Charette\,” he realized\, embracing the unity of his work. This clarity inspired a relentless creative drive\, culminating in “All Growed Up.” The title\, a playful nod to a line from Diner—”our little boy is all growed up”—also carries deep significance\, symbolizing Charette’s return to his roots while celebrating the artist he always wanted to be\, inspired by his childhood love of comics and cartoons. \nWhy You Should Attend\nThis exhibition is a vibrant celebration of resilience\, self-discovery\, and artistic growth. Visitors will experience a dynamic collection that traces Charette’s journey\, from his early days copying comics to his multifaceted career. Hosted in a space tied to his past\, “All Growed Up” invites you to join Charette on a ride through four decades of creativity\, where every piece tells a story of connection and purpose. \nCome explore the art of Jim Charette—serious\, playful\, and unapologetically his own. \nArtist Bio: After attending Swain School NBMA\, in the 80’s\, Jim worked as staff editorial cartoonist for two years at the Fall River Herald News. He worked as a graphics artist for five years for local screen printers while freelancing cartoons and illustrations. And he was a professional tattoo artist for five years at two parlors in RI before being sidelined by health issues in the early 2000’s. Jim’s work has appeared in numerous newspapers\, magazines\, books and assorted underground publications in the alternative press. His art has also been featured in numerous group and solo art shows throughout the US and internationally. Jim has produced dozens of videos featuring all original improvised music and digital manipulations of public domain footage for public access channels in MA and RI.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibit: "Cord-ura; Sanity" by Paulina Fuenzalida-Guzmán
DESCRIPTION:Groundwork is proud to host Cord-ura; Sanity\, a self-guided mixed-media art exhibit by Paulina Fuenzalida-Guzmán. Through thread\, memory\, and personal transformation\, Paulina examines the delicate balance between mental health\, identity\, and belonging in an increasingly unstable world. \nThere is no formal opening for this art exhibit. Self-guided viewing is encouraged during our business hours. M-F 9am-2pm. No appointment required. \nIn this body of work\, textiles become their own emotional language — stitching together experiences of rupture and renewal. The exhibition includes pieces created across different chapters of the artist’s life: reflections on collective trauma and human rights struggles in Chile\, intimate explorations of loss and maternal connection\, and new works that consider how we preserve sanity amid uncertainty. Together\, they trace an invisible cord that holds memory\, tenderness\, and endurance. \nVisit the Exhibition\nThis exhibition is free and open to the public starting Dec 16-Mar 31 2026 during Groundwork’s staffed hours:\nMonday–Friday\, 9:00 AM–2:00 PM\nGroundwork New Bedford\n1213 Purchase Street\, New Bedford\, MA\nEnter through the doors on 1 Maxfield Street.  \n  \nLearn More About the Artist\nWebsite: https://paulinarte.wixsite.com/my-site\nInstagram: @paulina_arte\nEmail: paulifuenza@gmail.com
