Attractions will include central pieces like Sitting with Grace — described as a large, fascinating sculpture made from paper, wire and up-cycled garbage, of an unusual human figure that takes the form of a throne.
Additionally, if you have any unused art supplies, Bub invites the public to drop off unused art supplies at the gallery during her show.
Donated supplies will be distributed amongst the Our Place community!
