News and Events!
View across flood plain at MawignackGreene Land Trust's 2017 Seasons of Greene art show at the Athens Community Center featured paintings of eight invited artists whose works depicted views of properties owned or managed by Greene Land Trust. We've heard from several local artists that they, too would love the opportunity to paint and display scenes of Greene Land Trust's lands.
From now until the end of October 2019, we invite all artists who live or visit the area to visit our properties, create their own versions of these sites, and enter them in the art show that we will host at the Willows during our Holiday Open House December 6 and 7, 2019. Complete details are presented under Coming Events.Looking for Artists
