Starting in April, you’ll be able to find the work of local artists on display at the Columbus Museum of Art in the 2011 Greater Columbus Arts Council Visual Arts exhibition. The exhibiting artists include Mary Jo Bole, Jill Gallenstein, Michael B. Hays, Lynda McClanahan, Danielle Julian Norton and Steven Thurston.
“CMA is excited to be able to give the Columbus community an opportunity to view the work of these artists,” said Lisa Dent, associate curator of contemporary art. “The variety and caliber of their art practices shows the range and wealth of artistic ideas in our city.”
“Being able to add the exhibition component to our fellowship program through this partnership benefits the artists and the community by exposing audiences to the rich talent of our Columbus artists,” said Milt Baughman, President of GCAC.
The 2011 Greater Columbus Arts Council Visual Arts exhibition runs April 29th through July 3rd.
