The Sandy Cleary Community Art Gallery is located on the ground floor of the Nashua Center for the Arts, inside the concourse that runs along West Pearl Street, from the Main Street Lobby entrance to the West Pearl entrance. It gives local artists the opportunity to display and sell their work to thousands of people attending concerts and events at the Center annually.
The new Winter rotation from January through March features four of Nashua’s talented artists displaying their unique perspectives.

Nashua Community Arts and the Nashua Arts Commission are collaborating to provide Spectacle Live, the operator of the facility, with planning, operation, and management of the gallery. Exhibitions include recognized local artists, emerging artists, and student artists with a goal of reflecting the demographics of Nashua, the most diverse city in New Hampshire.
Exhibitions for the 2025-26 season will change three times for four months each. The April – July rotation is reserved for student art and is managed by the representatives of the Nashua School District. The August – November rotation is open to all artists living or working in Nashua, and members of the Hollis Art Society. The third rotation, December – March 2026, will be an exhibition by members of the Nashua Area Artists Association. Art subject matter must be approved by the Gallery Selection Committee and found not offensive to general members of the public.
A Call for Artists is scheduled for April 1, with a deadline of June 15 for consideration in the August and December rotations. All artists wishing to exhibit must read the information and fill out the application at www.nashuacommunityarts.org/sandy-cleary-community-art-gallery/apply, and be available for the installation and take down dates of the rotation.
