Photoville Pop Up | Winchester

We are thrilled to bring Photoville back to Winchester this summer for a pop up public installation! Creating a photographic walking trail around Judkin’s Pond, where the Griffin Museum is located, the Pop Up is a public photo installation showcasing national, international and New England artists. This year we also bring sidewalk art to downtown Winchester, featuring contemporary New England based photographic artists and featured images from the Arthur Griffin archives. The Griffin Museum is pleased to partner with Photoville and the Winchester Cultural District to bring this Pop Up to Winchester, featuring 13 installations in photographic partnerships with the United Nations, Atlantic Magazine and Leica Camera USA, featuring the creativity and community of women and BIPOC artists alongside our local New England Photographic Community, highlighting the people and communities they inhabit.

America's Pastimes

America loves baseball, the boys of summer and our days in the sun. This exhibition features the timeless photography created by Winchester native Arthur Griffin, out of his archives housed at the Griffin Museum. Images of the Boston Braves, Red Sox and the crowds that celebrate the wins and losses of their favorite teams.

Touchstone Show

The Touchstones project is a visual conversation between artists Sal Taylor Kydd and Dawn Surratt. This project explores themes of connection, isolation and loss as well as adaptability and creativity as the world has been challenged with a life threatening pandemic. Both artists live on the East coast, separated by two thousand miles in physical terms, but less than a minute in the virtual sense. Through a series of photographic diptychs and poems, the work has evolved as a call and response, as they each responded to the other’s work, pairing photographs and writing, building on the foundation of trust and understanding that continues to grow between the two artists.
