PENCE GALLERY. Artist Ronald Peetz has been a stalwart part of the regional art scene since the late 1960s. As an object maker and sculptor, he delights in incorporating puns, word play, and irreverent humor into his work. Starting with his concept, he chooses any one of the many media he employs, to best make his idea come to life. In so doing, his sculpture and mixed media pieces lean heavily towards social critique and parody, blended with a lighter touch of humor and surrealism.
DAVIS ARTS CENTER. Wood shop and art workshops taught by Viking Workshop, a family owned business that specializes in all types of art. 1:30p—4:30p. $600
THE ARTERY. Echabarne titled her show "A Wing and A Prayer" because it expresses her feeling that we are flying on one wing in a dangerous time. The bas relief pieces are like prayers or wishes for all people, everywhere, to enjoy basic human rights. These rights are to love who we want to love; the right to be safe and nurtured; the right to be joyful in expressions of our own making. Free
