Please note: This exhibition is separate from the 37th Annual HPAA Members Exhibition with juried awards, which will take place at the Menino Arts Center and in a Virtual 3D Gallery from December 2026 into January 2027, and the call for which will go out in fall 2026. Unfortunately the Scollay Square Gallery at Boston City Hall, where the annual members exhibition is usually first staged, is not available this year due to renovation.
