People’s Choice Exhibition: The Abstract Mind On View

July 23 – August 20

SCAHC Spring Street Gallery – 133 Spring Street | Newton, NJ 07860

Experience the creativity and imagination of local artists in The Abstract Mind, this year’s People’s Choice Exhibition at the Spring Street Gallery. Inspired by the winning theme, participating artists explore the inner landscapes of thought, emotion, memory, and perception through a wide range of artistic styles and interpretations.

From tranquil imagery that evokes peace and reflection to bold abstract compositions filled with vibrant color and expressive forms, the exhibition invites viewers to consider how emotions and ideas can be transformed into visual art. Each piece offers a unique perspective on the many ways the mind interprets and experiences the world.

Visitors are encouraged to take part in the exhibition by voting for their favorite artwork throughout the show’s run. Voting will remain open until Saturday, August 15 at 3 PM.

The artwork receiving the most votes will be honored with the People’s Choice Award during the Reception and Award Presentation on Saturday, August 15 from 6–7:30 PM.

Don’t miss this engaging exhibition celebrating creativity, expression, and community participation.

Admission to the gallery at SCAHC is free; however, as a nonprofit organization, donations are always appreciated.
