Old Friends, New Works

The Mansion at Kimball Jenkins

August 22 – September 27, 2025

Friday, September 5: Public Artist Reception, 6:00-8:00pm (free to attend!)

Kimball Jenkins presents Old Friends, New Works, an exhibition of paintings by four artists who worked, taught, and studied at the New Hampshire Institute of Art in Manchester. On view in the Mansion galleries, the works by Tricia Gibbs, Betsy Holmes, TylerAnn Mack and Christine Ryan offer a wide range of subject matter, approaches and techniques –abstractions, plein-air landscapes, cityscapes, still life works, and more.

While style and subject matter vary greatly, what binds these works and these artists together is their continued dedication to their craft and their shared experience as students and educators. The exhibition is on view from August 22 through September 27, 2025.

Old Friends, New Works has been curated by Inez McDermott, Independent Curator and Professor Emerita of Art History at New England College, and Gary Samson, 7th Artist Laureate of New Hampshire and Professor Emeritus of Photography, Institute of Art and Design at New England College.
