NEWFANE — Ten artists from the SouthEast Hub of the Vermont Pastel Society are showing selected original pastels at the Crowell Gallery at the Moore Free Library, 23 West St., from Aug. 3 to 28.

Exhibiting artists live and work in the area, and all are experienced artists who enjoy working in pastel. They include:

• Lesley Heathcote’s carefully observed pastels of birds and animals reflect her love of the natural world and the creatures we share the planet with.
• After more than 50 years in theatre, Carroll Durand has fallen in love with plein air painting in pastels.
• Matthew Peake,
