Photo exhibition featuring Lincoln’s Linda Hammett Ory

Linda Hammett Ory is exhibiting her photos in the Griffin Museum of Photography’s Atelier38 group show. Many of the photos in her Hidden Treasure series reflect her love of nature and were taken while exploring the landscape of Lincoln and Concord.

Atelier38 is a portfolio-building class for emerging to advanced photographers. Lincoln resident Emily Belz, an independent photographer, educator and curator, taught this year’s museum-based cohort. The show runs from August 1 to September 1 with an opening reception on Saturday, Aug. 3 from 4–6 p.m. at the Griffin Museum (67 Shore Road, Winchester).
