Exhibitions

Gallery hours are 9:30 am to 2:30 pm, Tuesday through Friday. Admission is
always free. |
|
Come join us each month in a casual and friendly atmosphere when we celebrate the
opening of a new exhibit with a wine and hors d'oeuvres reception.
A new exhibit is hung each month, starting in October. Some exhibits feature
members, faculty, students or regional artists. Others are juried open exhibits
and the Island Art League encourages participation by all interested area artists.
Exhibit artwork is original and most is available for sale by the artists.
Opening receptions are on Friday, the first evening of the exhibit, from 5:30pm to
7:30pm, unless otherwise noted, and are always open and free to the public.
