Bracewell Youth Project

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Residents entering transitional housing at 111 Bracewell Ave. can look to the left to see a light at the end of the tunnel. 
 
The dark painting with its pathway toward lighted element brought to mind the Hoosac Tunnel, said Kathy Keeser, executive director of Louison House, on Friday.
 
"Somebody who was going through something could think, well, this is a way out — or a way in," she said, of why she selected that piece.
 
Plus, she added, the colors really worked in the front hallway of the Bracewell Youth Housing Project
 
The work was one of three donated by artist Sarah Sutro, whose paintings also hang in the Flood House and in Terry's House in Adams. A regional and international artist who makes her home in North Adams, her artworks have been in collections and exhibitions in the United States and abroad, including at the State House
 
Sutro's recently been going through her works of acrylics, inks and watercolors she's created over her career.  
 
"I just have enjoyed giving some of my paintings that are in storage in my studio, not doing anything with them, and having them out in the community instead, and having other people enjoy them and relate to them," she said.
