WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Williamstown Realty Group welcomes the community to explore its new art gallery at 4 Water St.
The mission of the Upstairs Gallery is to support talented up-and-coming artists in the Williamstown Community through exhibition, professional development and cultivating the audience.
The first exhibit at the gallery will feature drawings, photography and mixed media works by Alexis Rosasco, an emerging young artist, Mount Greylock Regional High School graduate and current student at the School of Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and Tufts University.
The exhibition will feature drawings that focus primarily on the study of animals, still lifes and the human figure through the use of charcoal and pencils on small and large format paper. Works also include photographs that Rosasco says look at the details of an object without losing what the whole of the subject is.
The community is invited to join the Williamstown Realty Group at the Upstairs Gallery in welcoming this talented and versatile young artist at an open reception on Saturday, Jan. 3, from 6 to 9 p.m.
Gallery hours are Jan. 3 through 31, weekdays from 10 to 4.
