Garden State Watercolor Society is proud to present
This Land Is Your Land,
our theme for this year’s Open Juried Exhibition.
D&R Greenway Land Trust, Princeton NJ 
October 1, 2025 – January 4, 2026


Inspired by the iconic folk song, we invite artists to explore their personal interpretations of what this phrase means today. Written by Woody Guthrie in 1940, the song reflects both the beauty and hardships of the American landscape and its people.
