Feast for the Eyes: New exhibit opens at the Brandon Artists Guild

Friday, July 9 at 5 p.m. — BRANDON — To celebrate summer’s bounty, the Brandon Artists Guild (BAG) presents Feast for the Eyes — a new, all-member, all-media art show. The exhibit opens with a free reception on July 9 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., and will run through Aug. 29.

“Everyone’s hungry,” declared fabric artist and BAG board member Judith Reilly. “After such an uncertain year, we’re hungry to do things, to see things. Beautiful things. That’s what Feast for the Eyes is all about. And our artists are craving the opportunity to create new art to show the world.”

Catering to their creative impulses, BAG artists will present a smorgasbord of works in glass, watercolor, oil, ceramics, fabric, photography, and more.

The Brandon Artists Guild is an artist-run gallery with approximately 30 exhibiting members and additional supporting members. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit cultural organization, the BAG supports the visual arts through exhibitions, lectures, demonstrations, and educational programs.

The BAG is located at 7 Center St. in Brandon. For more information, visit BrandonArtistsGuild.org.
