Thanks to all that joined us last night for "Rage - Freedom of Expression". The Gallery was full, the art was amazing and the front of the Gallery was really spectacular. Gallery artists Joe Dwzill, Betty Wilson, and Joyce Brown created an amazing installation representing the BP oil disaster in the Gulf. An oil derrik featuring blood soaked dollar signs pumped oil over a destroyed beach. Turtle eggs lay broken in the sand, with hands reaching in supplication toward the sky. Gallery artist Norm Gitzen's famous "Siren" stood blindfolded and bound, helpless. New Gallery artist Yure posed an amazing bronze dinosaur over the scene, representing fossil fuels. A gripping and truly expressive installation!

The "Raging Grannies" also joined us, lending their voice in song to our concerns about the environment. What a great group of motivated, outspoken women! More photos to come soon....

Stay tuned, many more exciting events just around the corner!

Get Ready to RAGE!!

This Friday the Gallery will be presenting works that express emotions through art. "RAGE - Freedom of Expression" will explore how we all feel about events in our daily lives, and how current events - both good and bad - affect and inspire us. The "Siren", Gallery artist Norm Gitzen's famous mermaid, returns to the front of the Gallery to stand in protest of the BP oil disaster in the Gulf. The Raging Grannies join us to lend their voice to our concerns. We invite our guests to share their thoughts and emotions on our ExPreSSionS board, which will be displayed after the show. Join us from 6 - 9 PM. Let us know how YOU feel. See you at 6!
