The Exhibit Runs February 4th Through February 28th, with an Opening Reception on Friday, February 5th, from 5:00 to 8:00 pm.

(Belfast, ME) Neicy, has entered the building. Bernice ‘Neicy’ Arthur that is. She’s lived in Belfast for three years now having followed her children up from the Boston area, and turns 90 in February. For her birthday, Åarhus Gallery is having a retrospective show of her life’s work. Topping out at 4’ 10” she’s an eccentric jolly bundle of artistic talent, wit and humor. Her artistic expression runs the gamut from superb pencil drawings depicting life in Boston and New York from her medical secretary days during WWII, to paintings, writing and found object sculpture, during her child rearing and art teaching years. She has continued prolifically right up to her funky colorful collages that she creates today.

Bernice has taught workshops on creativity and is the author of several magazine articles and two self-published books. This interesting show will include work by many of Bernice’s artist friends, young and...not so young. Work by her son Al Arthur, her daughter Willy Reddick and the other Åarhus partners will be on view as well.

Bernice’s friends will include: Daniel Anselmi, Dan Beckman, Paula Cannon, Mj Viano Crowe, Judith L. Davis, Ingrid Ellison, David Estey, Annadeene Fowler, Davidson Graves, David Hurley, Kevin Johnson, Mark Kelly, Marc Leavitt, Phil Mancini, Beverly Mann, Richard Mann, Cathy Melio, Georges Nashan, Abbie Read, Alison Rector, Wesley Reddick, Michael Scott, Patricia Shea, Louise Shorette, and James Strickland.
