TORRID welcomed spring to the city of Worcester with vibrant colors and electric energy. The exhibition was juried by Juniper Rag’s Payal Thiffault and Michelle May. Artists and collectors can pick up their artwork at the end of the party.

Juniper Rag invited artists to submit art that explore how the word “torrid” strikes them through subject matter or materials. Is it climate change, heat, energy, style or physical attraction? Artists were free to explore and present work reflecting their instinctive response in any medium.

In these times of immense change and a paradigm shift in our society after the global pandemic, we may see the world through a new lens and be more impacted and stimulated by things we now notice more. The emergence we all feel now from the cold winter days make us think of spring, calling for some heat!

Congratulations to the 3 CASH PRIZES for jurors' choice, Patti Kelly, Kaitlyn Malinowski and Tim Gannon and Honorable Mentions, Keri Anderson and Patricia Busso.
