March Exhibit

The month of March is 'Youth Art Month' in our schools and we are proud to present the works of Susanne Sellar's eighth grade art students from Read Mountain Middle School. These students learned facial proportions in preparation for building the busts exhibited. Also shown are radial symetry designs based on the human figure repeating. The action figures reflect the students' knowledge of body proportions and balance. They are made with a wire armature and covered with paper mache. There will be an opening reception on Thursday, March 4th during 'Art By Night'. The gallery stays open until 9pm that evening. We are located at 108 Market Street, downtown Roanoke. Regular hours are Tues-Sat 10-5, Sun 1-4.
