COLUMN: Eye on the Arts – Final visual arts exhibit
Advertisement
Proudly presenting our final visual arts exhibit of the season, we are exhibiting Human/Nature at the Steinbach Cultural Arts Centre, featuring artwork by Nicolas Narváez. The exhibit will close on June 23. The exhibit will also be made available for viewing online at steinbacharts.ca.
A huge thank-you to our Hall Gallery Sponsor, Good N’ Natural. We could not do this without you! Our sponsors help us provide our community with new and diverse art for the public to enjoy, provide a new platform for local and guest artists to show and sell their works and provide emerging artists with an opportunity to experience and learn how to prepare for, facilitate and exhibit.
