Our Town | Photoville x Winchester

In the insightful “Preface” for a collection of his Three Plays, renowned playwright Thornton Wilder advocated for finding “a value above all price for the smallest events in our daily life.” Inspired by the profound themes explored in Wilder’s play of the same title, the Griffin Museum of Photography is thrilled to present, Our Town, a public art installation and community exhibition. Echoing Wilder’s poignant reflection on beauty found in the simple places, we invited the residents of Winchester to discover the extraordinary moments within the ordinary spaces we call home.

As part of the 2023 Photoville x Winchester program, Our Town assembles a collection of artwork that celebrates everyday life in our town of Winchester. The exhibition will be displayed on the fence at the Winchester Town Common from June to September 2023, as well as in an online format. Combining landscapes, still-lifes, portraiture, and more, Our Town invites you to witness individual moments woven into a broader community narrative of Winchester. Through the lens of our talented local photographers, we hope to find an appreciation for the small, yet significant, moments that shape our community.

“Our Town” is made possible by the generous support of our sponsors: the Griffin Society, The Winchester Cultural District, and Griffin PhotoCircle patrons. We are also grateful for the support of the En Ka Society.
