Why Visit a Museum?


Everyone should visit the gallery for various reasons. For starters, the gallery has something for everyone! Whether you like realistic paintings, or vibrant whimsical paintings, there are numerous, diverse paintings of each!

Each painting is of a landscape, inspired by somewhere in the world – whether its beauty is conventional, or if the artist worked through their preferred methods of making it apparent. Whether it be a forest, a mountain, or even a sidewalk, one of these eight amazing artists has most likely created a painting for you to fall in love with.

Sue McNally’s vibrant The Princess Garden, Vermont has an alluring color scheme. So many shades of green exist within the painting, all complimented by a majestic shade of yellow-orange in the background. The lighting depicted clearly indicates that the sun is descending, and the texture is so captivating and convincing that the painting could easily be mistaken for a window to another world.

One of the highly-contrasting attractions of the exhibit is Sally Curcio’s bubble sculptures! Bubble sculptures are beautiful, three-dimensional sculptures, made of beads, pins, and other household craft items – even a tennis ball! These creations of art captivate the audience due to the astounding work and painstaking detail and attention put into them. Not a soul can walk past them without turning their heads, and probably staring for at least a couple of minutes.

These fascinating works are so vibrant and beautiful, and the detail admirable, that anyone of any age will enjoy their visit to this unique, legacy of a show.
