When
Article by Tom Rivers, Orleans Hub:
Kim Martillotta Muscarella is working on the schedule of art shows for 2025 at the Marti’s on Main art gallery.
She wants one of the shows to highlight Orleans County and the Erie Canal, which are both celebrating their 200th anniversaries this year.
Muscarella welcomes artists to display paintings, photographs, sculptures, quilts and other art forms for the bicentennial show. The opening reception will be from 6 to 9 p.m. on July 18.
Artists can submit photos of complete art or their ideas for new art for the show by April 4. For more information, contact Muscarella at (585) 590-9211.
Muscarella will display up to two works from artists in the juried show which is not limited to people who live in Orleans County. She is excited to see the art and the different ways artists express themselves in highlighting Orleans County and the Erie Canal.
Muscarella also is planning an environmental show after the bicentennial display. The environmental show will open on Aug. 15. Artists can submit photos of their work or ideas for the show by May 1 by texting Muscarella.
Marti’s is located at 2o South Main St., a prominent historic building that used to be the offices for the Cornell Cooperative Extension.
