Emerging Artists at YSAC Gallery

A new generation of local artists will exhibit their individual creative works at the Yellow Springs Arts Council Gallery from July 20 through August 12. Our “Emerging Artists” are Nate Schirmer (salvaged mixed-media),Dave Flowers (wood-working), Liz Zaff (painting), Kaleigh Harris (photography), Jennifer Carlson (portraits from India), Forrest Humphrey (pencil & charcoal sketches) and Meg Miller (watercolor & acrylic).ess that is unique to each individual. We can critique each other's work, if asked :), and perhaps come up with a more dynamic composition."

Join us on Saturday, July 21 at the YSAC Gallery from 6-8pm for the Opening Reception of the Emerging Artists Show. You will be highly engaged by the provocative work that these young artisans are exhibiting. Speaking Suns, local “Novel Sonic Texture” band, will play on our outdoor patio during the reception, and DJ JuJu’s Dance Piazza will follow featuring the interactive Salsa Underground Dance Team at 8:30pm; the atmosphere will be energizing!

There will be a Sneak Preview of the Emerging Artists Show on Friday, July 20 (6-9pm) during Cirque Carnival. Clarice Moore will be doing fun caricature sketches on our outdoor patio, and Sarah Strong will have her limited edition Cirque Posters available for donations. The perfect blend of Art & Music for Cirque Carnival! A special thanks to Meg Miller, the YSAC Antioch Collge Miller Fellow Intern, for organizing this innovative exhibit.
