Beyond Form at The Kittery Art Association

Beyond Form invites viewers into a world where color, texture, line and movement become language. What begins as paint and gesture becomes something more — an echo of thought, a pulse of memory, a reflection of our shared inner worlds. Join us for an exhibition of contemporary art exploring emotion, energy, and the unseen, on view at the KAA from May 21st - June 14, 2026.
Opening Reception: Sunday, May 24th from 5-7pm - Free and open to all!
