The colors of Concord in fall are so beautiful they bring a glow to our minds and a smile to our faces. The reds, oranges, and yellows against a green background are emphasized as they reflect in our waterways.

Whether you love music, the visual arts, or theater, Concord has something exciting for you this fall.

Šárka Botner was born and raised in Prague, Czech Republic. Often called the “the city of a hundred spires,” Prague is a stunningly beautiful city where merchants, artists, and inventors have met since the Middle Ages.

Raised in this environment, Šárka says, “I believe each of us has a creative code that is hardwired into our imagination. My creative impulses, such as capturing details, restoring frescos, putting brushstrokes on a canvas, and translating three-dimensional spaces into two dimensions, are comforting and exciting. 

Meet Bethany Noël and Alice Rosa. Noël is a pointillist, or rather divisionist, by circumstance and not choice, and Italian artist Alice Rosa had a love of botany from a young age. Discover their remarkable art in this Artist Spotlight.

Meet Carole Rabe and Christiane Corcelle. For Carole Rabe, painting is a dialogue between the artist and the “spaces, shapes, colors, and light observed.” “Remarkably,” says Christiane Corcelle, “the way I create my artwork mirrors how I live—a potpourri of diverse elements that may seem unrelated but come together harmoniously.”

This year marks the 100th anniversary of the incorporation of the Concord Art Association, a cornerstone of Concord’s vibrant art community. The incorporation papers were filed with the Commonwealth on July 3, 1922, and were signed by eleven people, including Daniel Chester French, Russell Robb, and Alicia, George, and Grace Keyes.

Meet Patti Ganek and Lyca Blume. Patti’s paintings of semi-abstract florals and seascapes seem as if they were created spontaneously from the ether of her imagination. Lyca creates one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces made from unique beads, pendants, and watch movement pieces collected on her travels.
