The Guild established the first New England Exhibition in 1949, a Silvermine tradition to this day and one of the area’s oldest and most prestigious juried competitions.
Originally open to artistsin the New England states, the expanded exhibition now includes artists nationally. Currently known as AoNE, the exhibition is in its 72nd year.
AoNE has introduced emerging artists to critical exposure for decades with the help of many distinguished critics, dealers, artists, and museum professionals who have served as jurors over the years. Louise Nevelson, Elaine de Kooning and Richard Anuskiewicz are among the artists whose early recognition in the annual competition contributed
to outstanding careers.
