"Art and fine craft that is being made in artist collectives such as the LACS captures an exciting energy, not the least because there is a place for creative innovation and multidisciplinary collaboration to exist."
Long known for showcasing work by local artists living in Massachusetts and New England, exhibits at The Lexington Arts and Crafts Society typically feature collaborations between the different guilds and artists. “Some of the most interesting work is often a result of collaboration," notes Rayburn of the combined exhibit of metalworker and weaver guilds. “Cross-discipline learning and sharing of artistic experiences can bring fresh perspectives to the work and the artists."
