The Sippican Lands Trust and the Marion Art Center are partnering to sponsor an exhibition by local artists to highlight the many scenic sites that comprise the Lands Trust's forests and marshes.

Local artists are invited to submit up to three works, in any media, for a non-juried exhibition to be held at the Marion Art Center, on October 5 through November 10. All submitted works must depict scenes of or from Lands Trust properties.

The Marion Art Center will receive a 30 percent commission on the sale of each piece.

Trail maps of the Lands Trust properties are available at the Lands Trust offices at 350 Front Street, or on-line at www.sippicanlandstrust.org.  Walking tours of Lands Trust properties will be conducted for interested artists in June, July and August on dates to be determined.

Complete registration packets are also available at the Marion Art Center at 80 Pleasant Street in Marion.

All artists must register by September 1. Pieces can be dropped off at the Art Center on October 2 and 3 from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
