It’s been a busy month with increasing donations and more people willing to TaKe ART!!! An easel went missing but was returned, and just this week, my favorite art patron, Sassy, returned to the gallery.

Here are some of the items displayed/taken from the gallery this past month. There may be some I missed if I didn’t get out there soon enough! It’s been especially fun having kids excited and participating in the art-making and exchanging. We even had a tumbling session on the lawn one evening. 🙂

Ah, the small easel went missing on Tuesday the 16th, I believe 😦

The installation of the Free Little Art Gallery_WS1 was on March 4th, and the official ‘opening’ was on March 5th! I created an instagram account for the gallery @freelittleartgallery_ws1 and also posted on my SusanAndreArt FB page, FB pages for West Highlands and Ardmore neighborhoods, DENT Creative Reuse Center & Art Laboratory and other Winston-Salem FB groups.

After only one day, local potter Dee Edelman contributed a tiny pot which I installed on a pedestal (a top from an aerosol can). It looked great! I added a ceramic Celtic heart by Charlotte artist, Timmy Hord @hordstudio:

There were contributions from local Ardmore artists Ginny Campbell and Sean Erbe:

  • Ginny Campbell
  • Sean Erbe

I filled in an open area with a gelli plate print and encouraged passersby to TAKE ART!!

Other Winston-Salem artists installed pieces in the freelittleartgallery_ws1:

  • Chris Botts
  • Paisley Hodge
  • Chris Botts

A small stoneware dish from Estonia was added to the FLAG_ws1, and Debbie Page Harris who has Free2BeeLoved tiny art gallery in Spartanburg, SC sent a gorgeous print. An unknown artist added a small book with a wise saying:

  • debbie page harris
  • Estonia dish
  • unknown artist
So, make art. Take art. Give art!!! The freelittleartgallery_ws1 is OPEN FOR ENJOYMENT!!
