Jeanne T. Guay's solo exhibit 'Timelapse' reflects her passion for creating artwork later in life

For Jeanne Guay, the path to becoming an artist took quite an unusual route. At the age of 67 in 2014, Guay had been assisting her best friend during her 10-year battle with cancer.

With the increasing emotional weight of the experience, Jeanne Guay turned to her artist son Joseph Guay for help, with the hope that art might provide her a therapeutic outlet.

Now, at the age of 76, Jeanne T. Guay is a full-time professional artist. Her first solo exhibition, “Timelapse,” is on view through January 7, 2024, at the new Grant & Little Gallery.
