Artists are invited for a month to exhibit a body of work in The Gallery. Davidson helps them plan and execute a solo or group show. The exhibiting artist/s provides a reception and hosts an opening and closing along with Camille.

Community action
The Gallery in Readfield raises money for local causes throughout the year by donated work from artists represented in The Gallery. This year $525.00 was raised for the Maranacook food pantry from art donations from myself Camille Davidson and represented artist Valerie Upham.
Capital Area New Mainers is an organization spear headed by Chris Asch that welcomes, assists and helps support refugees from around the world to their new home in Maine. With donations from Chris Higgins and Otty Merrill we have raised $325.00.
Thank you for the help from everyone, both the generous artists who donate their work and the buyers who support the cause.

ConnectionsReflection:
Our show at The Gallery in Readfield was the second time we have exhibited our work together. The experience provided a complementary dialogue of two working artists, who have shared much of their adult lives. Having the opportunity to exhibit in central Maine brought together our neighbors, friends and professional colleagues and introduced our work to the wider community. Chris and Tom Higgins |

“Artist and friend Hélène Farrar asked if I would like to show my paintings along with her at an exhibition this spring at The Gallery in Readfield. We were in communication with Camille Davidson, artist and proprietor of The Gallery, who was supportive about any ideas we came up with regarding a theme for our show. Little did we know our theme would be washing hands and strict social distancing. Camille was open to any ideas we came up with to still have the show, but remotely. She helped us develop an idea to do weekly posts during the run of the show and promote selected pieces intermittently throughout the week. An incredible learning experience and a successful one despite being in the early stages of a world wide health crisis. The Gallery is artists helping artists. A wonderful model.” |
