The Art of Portraiture

Special Gallery Exhibit

The Art of Portraiture, Depictions of Personality celebrates the faces of our friends, family and artists. The exhibit will share portraits in paintings, drawings, sculptures, fabric and photos.

A unique sculpture of Blackhawk will be the centerpiece of the exhibit. This sculpture was commissioned by Monique Chapeyrou and created by the artist Patrice Mercourt, who lives in Agen France (Galena's Friendship City). The sculpture is being shipped as a gift to the city of Galena. As soon as it arrives, it will have a featured place in this exhibit.

We all have stories to tell. What will these faces reveal?

Opening reception on March 8, 2019, from 5-7 pm.

Thursdays-Sundays from 1-4 pm
