The Towers Resident Art Show

The Towers Resident Art Show opened with a bang on Thursday, June 30th.
Beginning with a lovely reception featuring mango champagne punch and a variety of delicious hors d’ oeuvres, the Towers residents were treated to the works of twenty-one of their peers.
Exhibitors included:
• Ruth Allen-collage, pastel and stone sculpture
• Inga Behr-collage and underwater photography
• Betty Bent-oil painting
• Ray Blik-collage, oil painting and pottery
• Merv Cooper-stone intarsia
• John Crouch-oil painting
• Fred Emmerich-stone intarsia and bonsai
• George Gardner-cartooning, pastel and sketch work
• Peter Hall-oil painting
• Herb & Marilyn Harris-clay sculpture
• Mollie Hayes-needlepoint and knitting
• Rita Levant-oil painting
• Lillian Lever-oil painting, sculpture and mobile
• Sally Levy-watercolor and acrylic painting
• Margaret Lien-watercolor and pastel
• Pat Matheny-watercolor
• Bob Rocl-oil painting
• Leanore Saks-oil painting
• Ruth Simons-collage
• Marilyn Whitmyer-hand quilting

With over one hundred pieces on display, each artist was on hand to answer questions from the crowd, and what a crowd! Those in attendance were overwhelmed at not only the quantity of work, but the quality as well. Some were surprised to find so much talent in one location, others requesting a second showing. We are hoping to display additional pieces at our upcoming September Open House.
