OLLI Showcases Members’ Art At Free Local Show01:18PM / Friday, May 08, 2009
BERKSHIRE COUNTY - It’s no surprise that people who choose to live in the Berkshires often have a great appreciation for the arts. With its wealth of cultural possibilities, the Berkshires is a natural magnet for art lovers. Many local residents are accomplished artists in their own right, but may not have had a chance to share their talents with others.
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute of Berkshire Community College (OLLI), an organization that provides courses, lectures, special events and more throughout the year to Berkshire residents, is hosting an Open House and Art Show, featuring the artistic talents of its members. In members-only show painters, sculptors, photographers, jewelry designers, and others will show off their talents to the public. Many of the artworks in the show are for sale.
OLLI’s Art Show will showcase the works of more than 35 OLLI members who reside all over the Berkshires. The show also launches OLLI’s SUMMER SEMESTER 2009. You may register for OLLI summer classes and events at the event.
This free event takes place on Sunday, May 24th at the Lenox Library’s Welles Gallery, on Main Street, Lenox, from 2pm until 5pm and includes a wine and hors d’oeuvres reception. |
