The Sussex County Arts & Heritage Council (SCAHC) will sponsor an inaugural International and Global Perspectives Juried Exhibition in its gallery, 133 Spring St., Newton.

The exhibition will be on view to the public from Thursday, Sept. 21 through Thursday, Oct. 19.

An artist reception will be at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 30 in the gallery, with accompaniment by two cultural musicians from the Folklife Center of Northern New Jersey.

The executive director’s aim for the exhibition originated from the concept that a global perspective is a comprehensive lens through which you see the world around you. A global mindset celebrates the idea that we are all interconnected even within our distinctive cultures and ethnicities.
