Local visual artists are invited to submit their work to the next lobby gallery show at Orcas Center, organized by the Visual Arts Committee.  The focus of this upcoming show will be on “The Human Figure”, and all types of media will be accepted, including figure drawing, painting, photographs and sculpture.  Up to two pieces may be submitted, and more may be accepted if there is room for display.  Intake for submitted works will take place on Wednesday, Feb. 3, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Madrona Room at Orcas Center.  An opening reception for the show and artists will be held on Friday, Feb. 5, from 5:30 – 7 p.m., and the featured works will be on display until Wednesday, March 2.

All submitted pieces need to be in a ready-to-hang condition, including hardware and wire, and sculptures need to be in stable condition for mounting on provided stands.  The works on display may be offered for sale if the artist so chooses.

In addition to the featured show in the lobby, artists are invited to bring other of their works for the general show of On and Off the Wall, which will run until March 30 in the Madrona Room.  The Visual Arts Committee regularly offers monthly exhibits at the Center and welcomes the participation and sharing of work by all members of the community.  For further information or questions, call Pat Littlewood at 376-3050.
