Rhonda is a member of several regional art associations and exhibits her work at galleries and other local venues. Among a wide variety of recent projects, she has worked on daily engagement with a yearlong painting, writing a book on creativity, opening and running a gallery, attending residencies, teaching and working at a wildlife center to establish an annual art show fundraiser. Currently, Rhonda is developing a residency program for artists. – – – Founded in 1958, The Kittery Art Association Gallery and Shop is located at 2 Walker Street, in the heart of Kittery Foreside.

Gallery Hours: Thursday through Sunday, 11am-5pm Fires Within celebrates the intensity, energy, and depth of human passion.
