Opening Reception: Academy of Realist Art, Boston

We hope you’ll join us for the opening reception for the Academy of Realist Art's show here at the gallery!

The Copley Society of Art is thrilled to partner with its neighbor and affiliated organization, The Academy of Realist Art Boston (ARA), for the upcoming show highlighting the school, instructors, and students. This featured exhibition celebrates both mastery and creative evolution. The show presents standout student works that exemplify the rigorous academic training required to earn a Certificate of Completion, alongside dynamic personal works by ARA Boston instructors, alumni, and current students.

Together, these pieces reveal how a strong foundation in technical skill serves as a powerful launchpad for diverse artistic voices spanning a wide range of styles, ideas, and subject matter. The exhibition offers a compelling view of how disciplined craftsmanship and individual expression coexist and thrive at ARA Boston.

Please join us for the opening reception in the evening on May 7th from 5 – 7 PM in the Lower Gallery at the Copley Society of Art.
