A ceremony was held Thursday to introduce this year’s Art on the Trail exhibit on Center Trail. The Hopkinton Cultural Council event runs from Oct. 2-16. This year’s theme is land art — “Nature’s Gallery, Branching Out” — and artists were encouraged to focus on “utilizing elements in nature to be inspired and create pieces that celebrate the natural aesthetics around us.”
