“Afros and Abstract” Exhibit Opening Day

Fri, June 3, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 9:00 pm EDT

Dance of the Underwater World by Maria I Hart and Eileen M OBrien

Afros and Abstract Art Exhibit
June 3–26, 2022

Visit Del Ray Artisans gallery between June 3-26, 2022 to experience the Afros and Abstract exhibit celebrating the individuality of body, space, imagination and time. This exhibit hopes to provoke interest in the visual beauty of a culture that reaches the expanse of humanity and a movement, encapsulating the amorphous state of lines, color, hues and tones. And if you are looking for something else, you’ll also find local artisan pottery, jewelry, fiber pieces, and much more in our Alcove Gift Shop inside the gallery.

Join us on opening day, Friday, June 3 between 12-9pm. Mark your calendar now or set a reminder through Eventbrite. Plus join us for these other special June events:
