Lakeside Contemporary Art Gallery
Gallery Hours are Monday through Saturday, 10 AM – 2 PM. See below for the schedule of Exhibitions in 2020.
The Gallery is a new exhibition space for visual artists in the lobby of the RFA Lakeside Theater in Rangeley. Enjoy rotating exhibits from Memorial Day through Columbus Day Weekend with Opening Receptions where you can meet the artists and enjoy complimentary appetizers and cash bar (beer/wine).
We are very excited that we now have a gallery to exhibit contemporary art in our renovated lobby. The RFA’s goal is to use this space and a practiced business model to promote the visual arts, support our artists and generate financial benefits for them and our non-profit 501(c)3. The Lakeside Contemporary Art Gallery is coordinated by the owner of a contemporary art gallery with 20+ years experience and a creative team of visual artists and art collectors.
If you are an artist that would like to be considered for an exhibit, either one-person or group, please call 207-864-5000 for more information about the Gallery.
