Dog DaZe - What Fun!

Friday was so great in the Gallery! We dedicated the evening to all things canine, and we had a blast. We partnered with Elite Greyhound Adoptions and Paws on the Avenue. Elite brought four greyhounds to mingle with guests and Paws provided treats for visiting dogs, great outfits for our two four-legged models, and dog bowls for our table of human treats! Gallery artist Karen McGovern created hand-stamped dog tags on the spot, donating all proceeds to Elite. As you can see, the Gallery really did "go to the dogs!"

Thanks to all our friends and supporters for joining us, special thanks to Paws, Elite and Durga Garcia, our favorite photographer.

Stay tuned, more great events on the horizon!

What a Great Night!!

"Figuratively Speaking" was a fantastic success! Thanks to all who joined us last night, especially guest artists Claudia Jane Klein and Georgette Pressler. Claudia debuted her sculpture, the Wheel, which will reside outside the Gallery for the next 90 days as part of our new "Revolving Art" program. Georgette, of Devious Body Art, created an amazing work of living art by body painting a goregous model. Really spectacular!

Gallery artist Marsha Christo created hand-cut prints she applied live to anyone wearing light colored clothing who wanted an instant work of oringinal, wearable art. Many guests enjoyed not only the finished print, but the free hug that came with the process!

More events on the way so stay tuned!

Winged Wonder!

This past Friday was an extra-special day at the Gallery. Not only were we celebrating Mother's Day, we also celebrated the Gallery's one year anniversary on Lake Ave. The celebration was made even more special by the release of several dozen monarch butterflies, courtesy of Mr. Butterflies. What a spectacular event! Take a look at the photos below and you will see the amazing effect the release had on those participating.

The Mayor of Lake Worth, Rene Varela, joined us for the release, as well as the many other friends and supporters. The wonderful photos were taken by Durga Garcia.

Thanks to those that came out to share in this event, and for those that missed it, stay tuned! We have many more spectacular events on the horizon!
