As we move into March, the snows start to wane, and better weather is upon us. At this time of year, it’s also time to call local artists to participate in both appreciation and participation in the art community. Whether new to the area, or a long-time artist, there are opportunities to show your art in Central Oregon.
The Betty Gray Gallery of art is currently showing two talented local artists, both through the end of March. The unique and compelling photography of Sonja Runar will be on display in the lower gallery. She shares the pure joy of observing the wonders of the natural world.Sonja finds beauty in the wild, often providing a unique eye to a scene that most would not otherwise find remarkable. Upstairs, Sunriver resident Judy Wilson combines printmaking and paint to deliver a variety of abstract and more natural works. Judy presents blooming flowers, floating water, desert skies, and cloud formations; anything that catches her imagination.
The Betty Gray Gallery is seeking future artists to display their work. Any interested artists may contact the curation team at bettygray@artistsgallerysunvier.com. Be prepared to provide photos of your work along with your ability to provide enough material for a thematic presentation.
Likewise, the Artists’ Gallery Sunriver is seeking new artists interested in joining the gallery and working the gallery to support the cooperative efforts of the entire space. Interested artists may contact the jury lead at jury@artistsgallerysunriver.com for more information.
Enjoy our local exhibits, and consider bringing your art to a larger audience by exhibiting in the Sunriver area. Make sure to visit the Artists’ Gallery every Second Saturday of the month for our art reception to meet your local artists and compare works.
