The Woodstock Art Gallery will be showcasing five new exhibits during an open house on Saturday July 15th.
WOODSTOCK - The Woodstock Art Gallery has partnered with our sister city Sylvania, Ohio to bring you a cultural exchange through new summer exhibits.
On Saturday July 15th, you can visit their open house from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. for a chance to see work featured by 38 artists from here and across the border.
Director/Curator Mary Reid says the Woodstock Art Gallery is proud to support this "incredible opportunity for cultural exchange with our sister city."
The summer exhibits will be headlined by Visual Elements 65, the WAG's annual juried exhibition, and accompanied by an exhibit called In Dark Moments, There is Hope.
The accompanying exhibit will be featuring art from American artist Corita Kent's Moments Series which is on loan from the Sisters of St. Francis in Sylvania and London, Ontario artist Thelma Rosner's Elisabeth's Book series from the gallery's permanent collection.
There will also be a selection of paintings from the WAG's Florence Carlyle collection being showcased. The Ekphrasis of Florence features examples of Carlyle's landscape, still life, portraiture, and genre pieces. It will also include haiku, senryu, and haibun poetry by local writer Emily De Angelis.
