Things That Go!

On view March - June, 2024

This exhibition focuses on a favorite topic of young children…things that go! Boats, tractors, hot air balloons, trains, and more will be featured in this colorful and eclectic art exhibition inside the Children’s Museum of New Hampshire in Dover. New Hampshire artist Cameron Sargeant’s intricate pencil drawings of trains will be joined by the vibrant art of Massachusetts artist Sara Morton. Another Massachusetts artist, Susan Spellman will display beautiful paintings of tractors and the exhibit will be rounded out by Maine artist Francois Lamothe’s pastel and oil paintings of boats of the seacoast. Visit us for a look at this fun collection of things that chug, float, zoom, and fly!

This exhibit is generously sponsored by C&J Bus, who has reopened their terminal in Dover!

Gallery 6 is supported by Bank of America, the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts, Abbie F. Moseley Trust, TD Charitable Foundation and the Fuller Foundation.

Gallery 6 Mission

Gallery 6 exhibitions celebrate and promote the arts in New Hampshire and beyond. The gallery space is designed to blend into the Children's museum of New Hampshire Studio space where children's artwork hangs, connecting the playful creativity of children to the serious investigations of artists. Our high-caliber exhibitions are often based on a theme that has relevance to other Children's Museum of New Hampshire exhibits, that promotes creativity or is of particular interest to families.

The Children's Museum of New Hampshire schedules 4-6 exhibits a year and has these exhibitions planned many months in advance.

Gallery 6 is open during regular Children's Museum of New Hampshire hours and there is no charge to view the exhibit. (Those wishing to visit the rest of the Children's Museum of New Hampshire as well must pay regular admission.)
