Tomorrow’s a good day for residents who enjoy a good art exhibit. Two venues in town are hosting opening receptions. And the timing means, you can attend both.
Both receptions are being held on Saturday, November 7th.
Confluence: A Fountain Street Artist Member Exhibition
Southborough History and Arts Center is inviting the public to the Opening Reception for a contemporary art exhibit from 2:00 – 4:00 pm. (Although the exhibit has actually been open since last Friday.)
The curated exhibit features the works of several artists with “diverse artistic voices across painting, photography, sculpture, and mixed media”.
SHAC’s website promotes:
Confluence: explore how separate creative paths, traditions, and stories flow into a shared space . . .
Confluence marks the meeting point of separate creative paths. . . Here, distinct traditions and ideas intersect, flowing like rivers into a shared space to explore how individual stories shape a collective modern experience.
The exhibit is curated by Tracy Spadafora and fetures works by: Katherine Borkowski-Byrne, Dalvin Byron, Kathline Carr, Cherie Clinton, Marie Craig, Patricia Crotty, Patty deGrandpre, Monica DeSalvo, Deborah Drummond, Peter Knapp, Mary Marley, Vicki McKenna, Alexandra Rozenman, Rebecca Skinner, Tracy Spadafora, Hampton Stephens, Francine Zaslow and Anita Zotkina.
The works will be on display through Sunday, January 3rd. The arts center is in Fayville Hall at 42 Central Street.
Deceptively Frothy By Sarah Alexander
Apothecary Artists Studios and Gallery is holding their reception for multi-media artist Sarah Alexander’s new exhibit from 5:00 – 7:00 pm:
Come raise a glass, have a nibble, and view her extensive collection.
Sarah Alexander works in intricate, layered, detailed drawings and sculptures inspired by the artist’s garden. There is covert symbolic meaning behind each plant and seed she collects and depicts.
Working in a Maximalist style, Alexander creates towers of botanical timelines as they transition from one season to another, exploring the natural order of one’s life cycle and the dynamics of power, ritual, and succession.
The gallery is at 11 Main Street, Suite 9 (downstairs). For more details, click here for the Facebook event.
