2nd Friday ArtAbout: Slice, Found, and Exhibit It
July 8, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
free-admission
Join us at the Pence Gallery for our 2nd Friday ArtAbout reception on July 8 from 6–9 pm (free admission). We will have three fantastic exhibits on display:
Slice: A Juried Exhibit of Regional Art (awards @ 7:30 pm)
Slice is a display of contemporary art in all media that celebrates artists from all over California. This year’s juror is Chris Daubert, artist, writer, and curator, who chose pieces that are conceptually thoughtful, technically skilled, and representative of contemporary trends in art. On display June 21–Aug. 17.
Found
This exhibit features sculptures by various contemporary artists, fabricated by assembling discarded or recycled objects into a cohesive whole. Since Found’s opening reception unfortunately could not take place as planned, we hope you’ll attend the July 8 reception to celebrate the show. On display June 10–Aug. 14.
Exhibit It! A Community Art Show (awards @ 8:00 pm)
This exhibit showcases the talent of our community’s artists. We are accepting 50 artworks for this non-juried exhibit, and you can vote for your favorite artist to win the Public Choice award. The Curator’s Choice award will be announced during the reception. On display July 8–Aug. 14.
