Upcoming Exhibitions

Your Woodstock is a juried community exhibition held in celebration of the City of Woodstock’s 125th anniversary. Works by artists living in Woodstock and Oxford County interpret what Woodstock means to them — past, present, or future.  

Your Woodstock reflects on all aspects of life in the City: depictions of the landscape and iconic buildings and symbols in the City, personal memories and experiences in Woodstock, expressions of community spirit and imagery of everyday life.

Charles M. Schulz brightened the world for 50 years with his Peanuts comic strip, which debuted October 2, 1950. With Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and the rest of the lovable Peanuts gang, Schulz explored the emotional territory of friendship, disappointment, faith, and tolerance.  He was an artist and a storyteller who transformed images of everyday life into art that captured the humor, vulnerability, and dignity of the human spirit. 

In celebration of the City of Woodstock’s 125th anniversary, WAG is proud to be hosting the travelling exhibition, The Life and Art of Charles M. Schulz, which explores Schulz’s personal history and his role as the sole inspiration and artistic talent behind Peanuts. Original and reproduction Peanuts comic strips, Schulz quotes, and photographs illuminate the story behind the creation of this most popular and influential cartoon strip. 

The exhibition is brought to life with interactive activities for the whole family to enjoy, including “create your own” Peanuts comic strip tracing tables, take home crafts, photo opportunities and community engagement prompts to encourage visitors to reflect on the Peanuts legacy and happiness in Woodstock and Oxford County.
