Quincy art exhibit 'Shared Habitat Earth' puts the climate crisis on display

QUINCY — The environment, climate change and the beauty of nature are the subjects of artwork from more than 40 local artists on display in an exhibition titled “Shared Habitat Earth.”

QArts Gallery in downtown Quincy is teaming up with the Belmont Gallery of Art to host a pair of exhibits that feature paintings, fiber art, sculpture and photography.

Quincy’s version of “Shared Habitat Earth” runs from March 18 to April 23; Belmont’s show is from March 10 to April 30. The artwork shows “the tension between what humanity has enjoyed for thousands of years, and what will be left if we don’t act now,” according to a press release. C.J. Lori's "Evergreen Spring" shows trees in flight amid a cerulean sky; Yvonne Lamothe's "Save Our Wetlands" depicts a flock of great egrets set off in a purple background.

Each exhibit will include educational materials and information on how to take action.

An Earth Day Workshop will be held from 1 to 4 p.m. in Quincy.

QArts Gallery is at 1229 Hancock St. It is run by member volunteers of the Quincy Art Association, a nonprofit group dedicated to promoting visual arts. It was formed in Quincy in 1986. The downtown gallery opened Oct. 16, 2022.

The gallery’s hours are 2 to 5 p.m. Thursday through Friday and noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The gallery is handicapped accessible. For more information go to quincyartma.org.
