A Short History
Established by the Historical Society in 1989 to preserve Tewksbury through artwork exclusively depicting Tewksbury Township subjects, the “Tewksbury Open” has expanded its scope while retaining its original spirit . It is now a highlight of the Hunterdon and Somerset Counties autumn season. Widely publicized and much attended, the exhibition and sale has included work by many leading artists in the area and is held in an intimate setting with most artists in attendance at the opening. Known for the quality of the work, the exhibit also includes a “Small Works” area and a “Portfolio Showcase”.
