Westfield Memorial Library - August 2026

The Westfield Art Association will exhibit art in the first floor cafe section of the Westfield Memorial Library throughout the month of August 2026. We have displayed our members’ artwork here many times in the past, and are proud to partner with our friends at the library once again.

This year’s theme is “Small Art, Big Impact.” Since the exhibition space is small and we have so many artists, we had to limit the size of the pieces in the exhibition to no bigger than 12 inches on one side. The show this year features an incredible 31 artists, many of whom are new members in the Westfield Art Association.

Here is a list of the artists in the exhibition along with the name of their piece:

Erin Bailey, “Follow the Path”; Lee Forman, “Question Authority”; Jennifer Wilner, “Soak Up the Sun”; Charles Anthony, “Winter in Boston”; Kim Eckstrom, “Colorful Boats”; Susanne Kuneman, “Sandy Hook Lighthouse”; Skip Williams, “Red Shelter”; Jeff Laderman, “Watering Hole”; Jackie Charlton, “Ferraro’s Lights”; Stephen Ruppel, “The Christmas Carol”; Erica Witte, “The Beautiful Stare”; Karen Engelmeyer, “Maybe I’m Amazed”; Heda Matiejunas, “These Boots are Made for Walking”; Barbara Uhr, “Bruised Sky”; Sung Gross, “Blossom Day”; Robin Valentine, “Olive Us”; Arlene Carallo, “Iris Garden, Montclair, NJ”; Julius Carallo, “Bob Dylan”; William Palm, “Sunset on Turkey Point”; Audrey Yankielun, “On the TRADE Winds”; Margaret Smith, “Chair Series #3”; Lenny McDonald, “The Swamps Spectrum”; Gail Driscoll, “House at the Shore”; Meg Solebello, “Daisies for Maddox”; Alicia Cotter, “Blooms of Blue”; Dana Lyons, “Outgrown”; Sandra Wygledowski, “Still Standing”; Yoon Han, “Spring Sedum”; Diane Gallo, “Late Daylight”; Dorothy Siclare, “Tablet TIme”; and Mia Feldman, “Dream”

You can see digital images of a sampling of the work in the gallery below. Nothing beats viewing the pieces in person, though, so please head out to the Westfield Library to see the show while it is on display during August 2026.
