These five artists began with a common bond: each was a student of Catherine Kehoe at MassArt. In 2019, they decided to stay connected through weekly Zoom meetings. What began as a way to maintain momentum in their painting quickly grew into a space for friendship, encouragement, and the sharing of ideas.
From these conversations, they began planning future workshops to attend together. Often, they reconnected at summer programs through MassArt New England, sometimes in the same class, sometimes simply sharing work and experiences afterward. Beyond workshops, they continued to meet at museums, galleries, and art association shows, exchanging feedback and support as their individual styles evolved.
Over time, busy schedules and the fatigue of virtual meetings made their gatherings less regular. Yet the foundation they built remains strong. Their friendship endures, as does their commitment to supporting one another and celebrating both shared histories and distinct artistic journeys. FEATURED ARTISTS
