Arts Visalia to feature paintings from out-of-state artists in May

In May, Arts Visalia showcases the works of two out–of–state artists: Andrew Leventis from North Carolina and Kirk Maynard from New Jersey. The alluring hyper–realistic paintings of Andrew Leventis examine the correlation between our food supply and our sense of well–being. Kirk Maynard’s oil pastel self–portraits are compelling introspections on how black bodies are perceived in America and Maynard’s personal experiences as a black man.The exhibition will be on display from May 5th through May 28th, 2021.

Arts Visalia is open Wed. through Sat. from Noon–5:30. We have a limited capacity and recommend that you schedule an appointment by calling 559–739–0905 or email artsvisalia@sbcglobal.net. If you are unable to come to the gallery in person we have created Virtual Gallery Tours that are available at www.artsvisalia.org/virtual–tours.

Coming in June, Arts Visalia will be hosting a photography exhibition featuring the works of James Bonafé, Robert Farrel, and William Gerlach. Each photographer uses his own unique style to capture his perspective of the world around him. These stirring photos are not to be missed.
