Townsend Atelier, 301 East 11th St., announces an invitational exhibit that will be on view Nov. 3-Dec. 2. The exhibit, ELEVATE, features the works of 24 artists who have participated in a monthly critique program facilitated by Mia Bergeron at Townsend Atelier.
The public is invited to attend the free opening reception on Nov. 3 from 5:30-8:30 p.m. Works will be available for purchase.
Exhibiting artists include: Meg Aiken, Timur Akhriev, Elizabeth Allen, Cheryl Arnold, Mia Bergeron, Hollie Berry, Lori Bower, Barbara Brogdon, Lisa Caldwell, Jean Coker, Ann Currey, Danielle Damson, Kate Dilworth, Brandi Donan, Martha Elder, James Courtenay James, Shelli Langdale, John McLeod, Phoebe Mills, Priscilla Priestly, Cindy Procious, Cheryl Rogers, Dave Salerno, and Leah Salerno.
"For the past several years, artists have brought their artwork to Townsend Atelier for monthly critiques to get feedback, support, and technical advice from their facilitator, Bergeron, and from each other. ELEVATE speaks to acts of each artist elevating and supporting one another, as well as constantly elevating and improving their own artwork," officials said.
Each artist submitted up to three works for consideration for the show, which was co-curated by Townsend Atelier and Mia Bergeron.
