First Fall Art Show this Sunday, Livingston NJ

As it was cold enough this morning for my heating to kick in, it seems the sun has finally set on summer. Sunglasses, scarf, gloves and coat required to walk the dog means it is most definitely fall.

And the Fall Art Shows are beginning this Sunday at the Livingston Oval in NJ. The show will co-inside with a town-wide picnic in celebration of Livingston's Bicentennial, so it should be a fun day.

Oh dear... there appear to be 5 shows looming in my calendar in the next month - must get cracking!

Time to put away my strappy sandals and pull on some work boots

 

Sunday, September 22nd 11-5pm Art at the Oval Town Green Robert H. Harp Drive Livingston, NJ

For Small Works 2013, Trestle presents the work of 33 artists from the United States and abroad. In keeping with Trestle Gallery's past Small Works exhibitions, all of the work on display is 12 x 12 x 12 inches or smaller. This limited scale allows visitors to have an intimate experience with the art before them and showcases how relatively small pieces can make a strong visual impact. Despite the unifying scale of each piece, the artwork is extremely varied across media and subject matter.
