This year during Thanksgiving week the Harlow Gallery is hosting Cheryl Miller's 46 Million Turkeys project. Cheryl Miller, an artist based in Augusta, is exhibiting 15 years of turkey portraits and inviting the public to help her artistically create 46 million turkeys representing the number of birds that will be consumed in the United States over the Thanksgiving holiday. You do not have to be an artist to participate - visit Miller's website 46millionturkeys.com to find out more!
All of the turkeys submitted will be included in the week-long exhibition at the Harlow Gallery at 160 Water Street in Hallowell, Nov. 25-30, 2013. Gallery visitors will have the opportunity to create their own turkeys during the exhibition. The public is invited to meet the artist and witness the final turkey count at a closing reception on Saturday, Nov. 30 from 5 to 8 p.m. The Harlow Gallery will be open special hours for this event: Monday through Thursday, noon to 6 p.m. (yes, the gallery will be open on Thanksgiving!) and Friday and Saturday, noon to 8 p.m.
The Harlow Gallery is a 501(c)3 non-profit membership based art gallery founded in 1963. The gallery has been connecting art, artists and community in downtown historic Hallowell for half a century.
