The Art Effect hosts Teen Visions 2021, which celebrates the incredible work of selected young artists from The Art Effect’s 2021 summer programs. Experience art through the eyes of talented teens who created an impressive collection of more than 70 works of art, including drawings, painting, photography, digital animation, and mixed media, and more. It is an incredible accomplishment to be chosen for the Teen Visions exhibition.
“There Are No Rules”, an exhibition by Queen City 15 Gallery member artists to show what happens when artists defy their own conventions and norms as well as those of society. The work on display captures the creativity and surprises that often result when the artist takes a leap of faith, steps away from the tried and true and tries out new ideas, processes, color palettes and materials.
The show is on display through August 29.
Local artists display their work, H.V. Folk Guild perform live, kids activities, food & drink by Schatzi’s, site tours and door prizes.
The Cunneen-Hackett Arts Center is back, and is hosting a fun-filled and creative experience for local artists to display to the public their work in outdoor tents and indoor galleries.

Schatzi’s Pub and Bier Garden is providing the food and drink for sale and tours of the historic buildings will be available on the half hours. This inexpensive community event celebrates the come back of the arts and can be enjoyed outdoors without masks if fully vaccinated.
