Crary Art Gallery to open new art exhibition Saturday, August 3
The exhibit includes two artists and continues through Sept. 8. Ryan Herberholtz’s exhibition, “Apocalypse Reverie” explores human actions and interactions in the throes of adverse circumstances. Christian Frontera’s display, “Candor,” is inspired by the curious chaos of the Dadaism style of art.
Hailing from Detroit, Mich., Herberholz’s exhibition depicts images that ignite the imagination as to where humanity stands as a society, where that society may end up, and obstacles that stand in the way of human progress and achievement. Herberholz cites uneven wealth distribution and resource allocation as circumstances that limit human potential. Additionally, the increasing prospect of civil unrest and climate change are realities that inspire images of potential future calamities.
Children and young people will have an opportunity to see their creations displayed digitally in an exhibition at one of Scotland’s national galleries.
The 2025 Worcester 100 Open Art Exhibition will be held at the Artery Gallery, Croft Walk, from Saturday 8 to Saturday, March 15.
The free event will showcase a range of artistic styles, including paintings, prints, photography, and sculptures.
Opening times will vary throughout the week.

Three in five small UK museums and galleries fear closure amid declining revenue, new research suggests
Three in five small museums and galleries in the UK fear closure amid declining revenue and footfall, research published this week suggests. The survey of 40 small, independent attractions—those with fewer than 100,000 annual visitors—also found that four in five (78%) reported the current period as the most challenging the sector has faced, while over half (58%) said overall income has not returned to its pre-Covid levels.
The research, conducted by the cloud platform GoDaddy in partnership with the charity Kids in Museums, surveyed small museums as well as galleries, historic buildings and heritage sites. Alison Bowyers, the executive director of Kids in Museums, tells The Art Newspaper that UK museums are suffering more than their counterparts in mainland Europe.
