Upcoming Dates
Oct. 27-4:30 - 7:00 PM
Nancy Sterling-Unexpected Recreations
Musical Guests: Anne & Danny Schauffler
Music begins at 4:30pm. Speakers begin at 5:15pm
Concessions are available for purchase.
Nancy will be speaking about her adventures finding art materials as well as her technique for putting her compositions together. She is inspired by discovering and reexamining parts of nature. Nancy quivers when presented with dried pods or flowers, driftwood and fabric patterns. Her strong crisp compositions with their non-traditional framing lure you closer for an intimate inspection. There tends to be an unexpected twist in each piece.
Nov. 25-4:30 - 7:00 PM
Rain Spark Gallery Holiday Exhibition
Musical Guest: Maria Olaya
Music begins at 4:30pm. Speakers begin at 5:15pm

You may purchase the artwork and take it with you immediately unlike most exhibits in the Dee Denton Gallery.
