Don't miss the 8th annual Art in Your Eye Fine Art Festival, August 4-5 at the Batavia Riverwalk, 100 N. Island Ave. in Batavia. The outdoor juried fine art show will feature work by 75 artists from across the country, exhibiting unique works in painting, sculpture, jewelry, ceramics, woodworking, glasswork and more. In addition, the indoor City Hall show will feature juried work from 55 local artists in a variety of media. The Art in Your Ear Stage, sponsored by Hix Brothers Music, will feature an outstanding lineup of local musical talent that will provide continuous music throughout the festival.
This year’s Children’s Tent, sponsored by the Montessori Academy of Batavia, will again feature potter’s wheel demonstrations and “hands on” ceramics experience for adults and children alike. The tent will also provide several free art projects and a group sculpture project of constructing a “Castle in the SkEYE” out of recycled boxes and containers.
For poetry lovers, Art in Your Eye will again feature a poetry tent with continuous readings of their own work from local poets and writers. There will also be a display of work from Batavia’s Drawn With Words project, a community collaboration project where local writers posted 50-word stories which were illustrated by local artists.
