Pet Project

July 10 – September 12, 2027

About

The Bedford’s annual juried exhibition returns with Pet Project, a whimsical ode to the animal companions who capture our hearts with their larger‑than‑life personalities. In an array of media, Pet Project invites us into a playful menagerie where these grounding forces become muses and mischief‑makers, reminding us how blissfully they slither, flutter, scamper, and pounce their way into our lives.
