(Portland, ME) Please join us for an opening reception for The Artful Art of Drawing this Friday, June 18th from 5:00 to 8:00 pm, featuring live jazz provided by Luc Cary and his trio. Other participating artists include: Sylvia Bangs, Marlene Ekola Gerberick, Fred Lynch, Crystal Nicholas, Noriko Sakanishi, Anthony Shostak and John Whalley. The exhibit runs June 18th through September 12th.

There is something basic and utterly satisfying about studying good drawings. Perhaps it is because all of us started out by picking up a pencil or crayons and expressing our basic selves on paper – not to mention, in some cases, walls and floors as well. To see what a fine artist can accomplish with pen and ink or graphite or some combination, and to see the range from small to big, from figurative to abstract and from geometric to fanciful is downright inspiring. These eight artists could not be more disparate in their choice of subject, composition or world view even. What they have in common is talent – and lots of it!

The University of New England Art Gallery is located on the Portland Campus at 716 Stevens Avenue. Gallery hours are Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 1:00 to 4:00 pm, Thursday from 1:00 to 7:00 pm, and by appointment. Admission to the gallery is free.
