Common Ground: 12th Annual LIMarts Members Exhibition

On view in the History Museum, November 20 through December 21, 2025

The Long Island Museum and LIMarts are thrilled to present Common Ground, the 12th annual members-only exhibition celebrating the vibrant creativity of our region’s artists.

For generations, LIM  has served as a gathering place where people of all ages come together to experience the art, history, and culture that define our region. This year’s exhibition centers on the theme of Common Ground, an exploration of shared spaces, community, environment, and cultural connection.

Each artist was invited to reflect on what Common Ground means to them—whether it’s rooted in land, identity, gathering, or personal connection. The exhibition invites visitors to consider how we may share commonalities with one another and discover something new about ourselves along the way. While Long Island itself is our shared foundation, every artist brings their own story and perspective to life here.

LIMarts is a special membership initiative dedicated to supporting and showcasing the exceptional visual artists who call Long Island home—from Brooklyn to Montauk and beyond. This annual exhibition celebrates the diversity, creativity, and talent that make our community so extraordinary.
