Studio B, 39 E. Philadelphia Ave. in Boyertown, PA, announces the opening of an art exhibition entitled “INSIDE” on Friday, Jan. 31, from 5-7 p.m., featuring works in all media and genres of art.
The broad and open theme challenges artists to submit works interpreting the “inside” of anything: the mind, a room, a home, a family, a town, a state, a country, the earth … the universe, for example. The show continues through Sunday, April 27.
Juror for the show is Kathi Ember, a professional artist/illustrator for over 40 years. For the first 10 years of her career, she focused on editorial illustration, creating conceptual and informational art for books and magazines. Then, she connected with a NYC agent and spent 25 years as an illustrator for children’s books. In 2017, she broke off with her agent to explore other avenues. She has painted several murals, most notably a large mural based on Alice in Wonderland for The Kemerer Museum of Decorative Arts in Bethlehem. Currently, she is focused on exploring her own personal work and expanding her growth as an artist.
Studio B is grateful to Hardy Farrow of the Longacre Company, psychic medium Cristina Leeson, and Scott Rothenberger’s PLACE for sponsoring prize awards to artists.
Farrow is the owner and force behind Longacre Company, a leading provider of home services based in Berks County, Pennsylvania since 1920 has a dynamic background in entrepreneurship and a passion for community development.
Leeson’s stated purpose is to spread awareness of energy and the mind, body, and spirit connection, stating, “If we look within and understand how our spirit speaks to us, and we listen to that amazing voice, we can create a better life for ourselves, and create a better world around us.”
Rothenberger’s annual Fall into Winter tour at PLACE’s design studio and warehouse includes a raffle with proceeds and matching funds from PLACE donated to Studio B as part of its commitment to giving back to the community through charitable organizations including those addressing childhood cancers and animal rescue.
The reception and exhibit are free and open to the public. Normal gallery hours are Saturday and Sunday, from 12-2 p.m., or by appointment by contacting Jane at 610-563-7879. Learn more about Studio B by visiting the website: www.studiobbb.org/.
