We’re thrilled to announce that Jonathan Steele’s stunning photo, “Rounding the Bend” capturing the Essex Steam Train, is the winner of the Essex Board of Trade Photo Contest, and will be displayed at the gallery for the month of August.

The Essex Art Association, housed in a historic Essex building, has served the Shoreline area as a nonprofit seasonal art gallery since 1946. We were the first local art association to embrace all styles of art, from the traditional to the cutting edge. The excellence and variety of our shows have made the EAA an outstanding exhibition venue showcasing quality art.
