![Awesome exhibition in Exeter, NH... go see it!!](http://jenaardell.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/YQ2A0326.jpg)
I took a little road trip to Phillips Exeter Academy’s Lamont Gallery in New Hampshire this past weekend to check out my friends’ group exhibition. (Great little Main Street area and great exhibition!!) I don’t think these three talented Los Angeles-based artists have ever been in such an extensive group show together. The photos below don’t do the works justice; you have to get out and see them for yourself. The exhibition runs until Saturday, March 2, 2013. Definitely worth the trip if you’re anywhere remotely close to NH.
