VILLAGE ARTS NEWS RELEASE

40+ new wild, whacky, and whimsical creatures now grace the walls of Village Arts, and they need an audience!  These colorful critters are both fun and fantastical and you can tell that Village Arts has an imaginative crowd of artists coming through the doors!  Many of the creatures are looking for new homes, so be aware! Dragons, goats, birds, cats, hippos, whosits and whatsits might just beg to come home with you! 

The depth and breadth of artwork on display is noteworthy.  Artists range in age from under 5 to over 90 and work in media as diverse as felt and fiber, stained glass mosaic, wood, etching, batik, clay, marker, watercolor, collage, digital media, acrylic, and more.

Artwork from Out on a Whim will be on display from now through Aug. 6 so there’s plenty of time to come back for repeat visits and to get inspired for Village Arts next show “What I Did On My Summer Vacation”.  Make sure to stop in and vote for your favorite piece which will give artists a chance to earn a gift certificate to keep them well supplied in art materials. 

Village Arts is planning many more exciting shows and other interactive opportunities and encourages anyone and everyone to add their names to the E-mail list by sending a message their way on any platform, and to check out social media on Facebook and Instagram to stay up to date with all the fun!  Village Arts is located at 216 DP Road and is currently open 9 AM-4 PM Monday through Friday and 10 AM-4 PM on Saturdays.
