Local Art

Explore Hotel Thaxter’s captivating local art collection, inspired by the legacy of our namesake, Celia Thaxter. Celia was renowned for creating a vibrant artist colony on the Isles of Shoals, where she welcomed esteemed musicians, artists, and writers to draw inspiration from the remote beauty of the islands. Our collection of over 60 works features stunning paintings by local artists, displayed throughout our common areas, hallways, and within every guest room. Some pieces are available for purchase, offering you the chance to bring home a unique part of New England’s artistic heritage.
