“Monadnock Farming: Our Heritage,” the fourth triennial exhibit of fine art featuring agriculture, will open in the Cunningham Gallery at the Jaffrey Civic Center on Friday, Oct. 14.

The exhibit includes paintings bringing to life the landscapes, activities, and participants, both human and animal, in the Monadnock Region that celebrate our farming heritage.

Participating artists include Dave Bulger, Francelia Clark, Mary Iselin, Deb Pero, Chris Reid, Ann Sawyer, and Jeanne Maguire-Thieme.

Members work in various mediums, including oil, pastel, watercolor, and mixed media. All are professional artists, and all have a personal voice, but all are inspired by the agricultural activity which surrounds us.

The exhibit will open with a reception on Friday from 5 to 7 p.m., and run through Nov. 12.

Gallery hours are Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to noon and 1 to 5 p.m., and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Admission is always free.
