Artist’s Opening Reception Fri, 9/16/2022, from 5-7 PM
“From meets About” in a unique showcase of one-of-a-kind artworks by artists from “Lisbon” and artists who have captured the beauty, charm, and history that is “Lisbon”: both our local historic Lisbon, Ohio and our namesake sister city of Lisbon, Portugal.
Artist’s Opening Reception is Fri, Sept 16 from 5-7 PM at Source Gallery, 40 N Park Ave, Lisbon, OH. All works are available for purchase.
About the Show "Lisbon Meets Lisbon"
Since opening Source Gallery in January 2022, we have been wanting to highlight local Lisbon art and artists in a special show. The idea for this new upcoming show came about during the gallery’s recent opportunity to represent the works of conceptual Kurdish artist Ilos Ilyas Elias Kirkan, abstract painter from Lisbon, Portugal. What a fun collaborative idea to create a showcase of art, from and about, the two cities of Lisbon, highlighting art and artists who have captured the beauty, charm, and history that is “Lisbon”: both our local historic Lisbon, Ohio and our namesake city of Lisbon, Portugal.
Thus, was born “Lisbon Meets Lisbon” a curated show that shares the work of local artists and their visions that highlights the charm, history and beauty that is “Lisbon” and includes a few surprises on the theme of our sister city of Lisbon, Portugal.

About the Lisbon
About (New) Lisbon, Ohio
Lisbon, Ohio of Columbiana County was established by Baptist minister Lewis Kinney on February 16, 1803. It was named New Lisbon after Lisbon, Portugal. The name was changed on January 17, 1895, to drop the prefix “new.” This helped to establish the town as a modern staple in Ohio.
Lisbon (Lisboa), Portugal
Lisbon, Portugal is one of the oldest cities in western Europe, with a history that stretches back to its original settlement by the indigenous Iberians, the Celts, and the eventual establishment of Phoenician and Greek trading posts (c. 800–600 BC), followed by successive occupations in the city of various peoples including the Carthaginians, Romans, Suebi, Visigoths, and Moors.
