Reflections: Art from MFA Staff
Past Exhibition
Upper Gallery February 20 - March 22, 2025The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Copley Society of Art, present Reflections, an exhibition comprised of artwork from the MFA Staff. It is an opportunity to recognize those who contribute to the museum every day, and reflect upon the community that makes it whole. In this juried show, artists amongst the MFA staff interpret the concept of reflections in either a physical or conceptual sense. Artists were encouraged to speak to the theme in a variety of ways, from one’s personal journey of artistic growth to community and its impact upon the individual creative process. In the event of a sale, 100% of the proceeds will go to the creator.
Co|So is honored to have Chris Firger, Timothy H. Lee, and David Skirkey jury and award prizes for this exhibition. Congratulations to the award winners:
