SUMMARY:Second Time Around at Del Ray Artisans Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Second Time Around Art Exhibit\nSeptember 5–27\, 2025\nOpening Reception: Friday\, September 5 from 7–9pm\n“Amoeba Series: Party!” by Tracy Wilkerson\nMany physical items we choose to remove from our lives can be sold/given/donated to others rather than going into our world’s overburdened landfills. It takes a conscious choice to acquire items from others rather than purchasing new items at a retail store. It also takes a little effort to offer something no longer needed to others rather than just tossing it in the trash or recycle bin. The Second Time Around art exhibit at Del Ray Artisans gallery focuses on this thought-change concept of sustainable creativity and enhancing the artistic environmental ethos\, from the featured artwork utilizing recycled materials to the special workshops and events held during the exhibit. \nJoin us for the opening reception on Friday\, September 5 between 7-9pm to meet curator Tracy Wilkerson and the artists. Mark your calendar now or set a reminder through Eventbrite. \nSave the dates for these creative events: \n\nCardboard Creatures workshop – September 6\, 10am-noon\nAcrylic Paint Pour workshop – September 8\, 6:30-8:30pm\nEco-Chic Jewelry workshop – September 10\, 6:30-8pm\nDime Store Alchemy workshop\, September 13\, 6-8:30pm\nJewelry Fix-It Nite – September 18\, 6:30-8:30pm\nPlaying with Resin workshop – September 22\, 6-9pm\n80s Sing-Along & Dance Party – September 26\, 8-11pm\nMovie Nite – September 27\, starting at 7:30pm\n\nRegister in advance for workshops at delrayartisans.org/workshops.
