Garlands of Hope 

As we move towards 2026, the Northwood Gallery invites you (yes, you!) to participate in a community art project: Garlands of Hope. 

We welcome you to take a moment to reflect on the future. Draw a picture, quote a song or a poem or a philosopher. Or contribute your own wishes, prayers or meditation to create a collective piece of art and goodwill for the coming year. Your contributions will be added to a growing chain of thoughts and beads which will be constructed and on display at the Northwood Gallery in Stowe, VT.

We strive to shift the current tenor of fear and unrest to one of hope. Now, more than ever, building community and recognizing the comfort we find in one another (and in art) is a priority. Please join us!

No purchase necessary - all are welcome to participate.

Supplies and creation-stations will be available in the gallery starting 11/10/25.

If you'd like to create your contribution at home, please use a heavy card stock (think index card weight or heavier), no bigger than 3x3 inches. Feel free to drop them off at the shop at 151 Main St. Stowe, VT or mail to:

Hope by hope, we can build our dream tomorrow.

Thanks,
