Marquette – The City of Marquette and Lake Superior Art Association will host a Winter Charm Exhibit beginning with a reception on Thursday, February 2 from 6 to 8 p.m. in the Huron Mountain Club Gallery on the lower level of the Peter White Public Library. The exhibit features artwork that embodies the spirit of our wintery climate. This is a non-juried exhibition open to the public.
Also featured at this reception is the LSAA Gallery exhibition by Lake Superior Art Association’s V.I.P.S. Artists including Chrys Levesque Hendrick, Gail Mahan, Julie Mowen, Diana Peterson, Susan Roubal, Charlice Stewart, Connie Tonkin and Michele Tuccini. V.I.P.S. stands for “Variety in Painting Styles.” These artists work in a variety of mediums including oil, watercolor, acrylic, pen and ink, mixed media, alcohol ink and collage.
The February SmallWorks Gallery will feature work by fairy tale and folk artist James Keast. A Marquette native, Keast was brought up in a large musical and artistic family. His family spent a lot of time outdoors hiking, fishing and camping and also had an appreciation for other people and their cultures. These influences can be seen in his work. Keast is self-taught and learns from studying other artists and reading. He worked for 10 years as a commercial artist in Southern California and he has also taught art to children, teens, adults and the disabled.
All exhibits run through February 25.
