Manley Art Center announces the opening reception for the March Art Exhibit, held Saturday, March 11th, 2023, from 3 to 6 PM at The Manley Art Center, located at 433 Oak Street in Brookings, Oregon.
The exhibit, on display from March 7th through April 1st, presents artwork from the members of Manley Art Center expressing love for pets and animals. The exhibit is a celebration of the collective joy pets and art bring to our lives!
We are also using this exhibit to bring attention to the work the South Coast Humane Society (SCHS) does to improve the lives of pets and people. During our art reception on March 11th, Jennifer Alcorn, SCHS Director, will present information about the organization's various sustainable programs. Artist Adena Turner will auction off a custom pet portrait, proceeds will be split between the artist and SCHS. Adena’s art can be viewed at adenaturnerart.com or facebook.com/adenaturnerart. Lastly, consider bringing a donation for SCHS of one of the following items to the artist's reception: lightly used or new blankets, small and medium Martingdale collars (slip-on not clip-on), Fabulosa cleaner, or plastic cat toys. SCHS is always in need of these items.
The rest of the exhibit features a variety of art created by the Manley Art Center members. Proceeds from the sale of artwork are shared between the artists and the Manley Art Center. The Manley uses its portion to further its mission to promote, through education, the appreciation, distribution, and enjoyment of fine arts and crafts.
