What is It? exhibit
Artisans International Gallery will present an exhibit of work by local area artists on the theme, "What is It?" through April 19.
"This theme is a way to force our minds to think in a way we may not normally think - either something is out of context or it is not something our eye is used to seeing because the object may be too close or too far away," said Bronwyn Mason, owner of Artisans International Gallery. "The theme is a way to trick our minds into seeing something in the same way we imagine animals or objects in the clouds." Artisans International Galley is at 1653 Lucerne Street, Suite B, Minden Village. Information, 783-8881.
