CAMBRIDGE – "Carole Gemeny Scott: For the Love of Art and Family" is a tribute exhibition to the late artist Scott.

Scott was a multimedia artist who mostly enjoyed painting flowers, landscapes, and still life in watercolor, but also displayed talent in pencil/charcoal and other mediums. For many years she was a student of Barbara Zuehlke’s Intermediate Watercolor class at the Dorchester Center for the Arts, which was her second home and family.

Scott left a legacy which inspired many of her family members to explore their creative side. Through this exhibit, her children Doug, Beth, and Kevin, along with grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and close friends, take us on a journey through a lifetime of Carole Gemeny Scott's love of art, from her high school years to just days before her passing in August of 2023.
