Art Exhibit Showcases Work of Oxford Greens Residents

The following news release was submitted by the Oxford Cultural Arts Commission:

The 31 art works exhibited in this month's art show on display at the Stephen B. Church Memorial Town Hall were created by a group of 14 artists who live in the 55 and over community at the Village at Oxford Greens.

The artists participated in a much larger group art exhibit at the Ridge Club at Oxford Greens on June 4 and 5, and some of these works were on display there. Other paintings and pastels were selected by the artist to be included in the June OCAC Town Hall exhibit to create an exhibit that represents the group’s dedication and enthusiasm for their art.

Some of the artists have exhibited for many years and have competed in area juried show and exhibits showing their art in many venues. Some of the artists also teach art. Others are just rediscovering their artistic ability or starting from scratch as students and just beginning to experience the fun of expressing themselves in oil, watercolor or pastel. 

There is a wide variety of styles and subjects represented in the work on display including beautiful studies after old masters, landscapes, florals, portraits and whimsically represented animals. Hanging together in The OCAC Town Hall Gallery the art expresses talent, creativity and the individual members of the groups unique view of life.

The Oxford Cultural Arts Commission is pleased to have this attractive exhibit of art work by this talented group of local artists in the OCAC Town Hall Gallery.

The Exhibit will be available for viewing at Oxford Town Hall Meeting Room through June 30 during business hours, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 7-9 p.m. Monday through Thursday. The Town Hall is located at 486 Oxford Road, Route 67.
