The Strand Center for the Arts Announces the Opening Reception for the Community Gallery Show 2022
PLATTSBURGH, NY – The Strand Center for the Arts is excited to announce its Community Gallery Show on view in the Main Gallery at 23 Brinkerhoff Street from February 4 to February 25, 2022. The Community Gallery Show Opening Reception will take place Friday, February 4 from 5:00 to 8:00 PM and is open to the public.
For this show, the Strand Center welcomed works from all artists in the community. This collaborative exhibition features a breadth of work including photography, sculpture, painting, pastels, ceramics, stained glass, printmaking, and drawing.
Concerning the exhibit, Gallery Director David Monette stated, “We got the idea for this type of show, where the community artists, whether they are Strand Center members or not, are invited to hang their work in our space, from the success of the Pop-Up Shows we had during the height of the pandemic. Folks were so appreciative and excited to have their work displayed, we thought, ‘Hey! Let’s show our spruced-up gallery off to as wide a range of people as possible.”
The Community Gallery Show will be on view from February 4 to February 25, 2022. The exhibition opening is Friday, February 4 from 5:00 to 8:00 PM. This event is free to the public. Regular gallery hours are Tuesday through Friday from 10 am to 5 pm and Saturday from 10 am to 2 pm.
