EXHIBIT & ARTIST RECEPTION

Eugene Conlon: A Retrospective

Wheatgrass Books is honored to present Eugene Conlon (1925–2001): A Retrospective, a special exhibition curated by his daughter and Livingston resident, Eugenia Kay. A reception for the exhibit will be held during the 4^th Friday Art Walk on August 22nd from 5 pm to 8 pm, inviting the public to experience the work of a prolific American watercolorist whose career spanned over five decades. The show will be on display from August 22nd, 2025 through September 19th, 2025.
 
After graduating from the Massachusetts College of Art in 1950, Eugene Conlon dedicated his life to painting. His work was exhibited in both solo and group shows and represented by distinguished galleries including the Munson Gallery in Chatham, Massachusetts, and Santa Fe, New Mexico. He was a member of the National Academy of Design, the National Watercolor Society, and the Boston Watercolor Society. His paintings reside in private and public collections across the country.
 
This retrospective features pieces from Eugenia Kay’s private collection, offering a rare and intimate glimpse into the legacy of an artist whose fluid, expressive style captured the natural world with quiet intensity.
 
Join us at Wheatgrass Books for an evening of art, conversation, and community.
