Hidden World Art Exhibit

Del Ray Artisans will feature the “Hidden World” art exhibit starting Jan. 8. Hidden World is a visual representation of things that are not readily visible in our ordinary lives — an exploration of microscopic organisms, macro-depictions of nature, the metaphysical world, emotions, sounds and more. Entrance to the exhibit is free. Face masks and social distancing are required. 

Gallery hours are Thursday & Friday 12-6pm and Saturday 12-4pm

Special workshops will be offered in conjunction with the exhibit. 

Hidden World: Collage in a Box with Susan Farrer on Sunday, January 10 from 1:30-4:30pm. Capture your ideas and images by creating a “hidden world” collage that tucks into a 7.5 x 10″ wooden box with a hinged lid. Learn about collage materials and techniques as you combine pictures of what’s important to you – whether something experienced in the natural world (people, plants, animals, birds, insects, even microscopic organisms), or in your personal or inner emotional world. The finished box will be ready to hang on a wall or display on a table. No experience needed! (Register by January 5)

Hidden Layers: The Joys of Gel Printing with Eileen O’Brien on Sunday, January 24 from 3-6pm. Gel plate printing is a fun and easy way to create beautiful one-of-a-kind prints without a press. This class introduces the basic techniques of gel printing, and instruction on developing plates with multiple layers. Plates and all other materials provided. Participants will learn to pull prints using different paints and papers, found objects, stamps, stencils and natural elements. In the three-hour workshop, you will create multiple prints ready to mat and frame, use in collage, make greeting cards and so much more. (Register by January 20)
