Winter has arrived at the SilverStone Gallery by means of new seasonal paintings by Durham artists. The original artwork makes the perfect theme or accent for your home decor and lets you make a bold statement about your appreciation of the arts.
Recent additions to the one-of-a-kind art is soap stone carvings by Uxbridge artist Stuart Blower and fibre art by Pickering’s Martha Brown. “Since 1989 PineRidge Arts Council’s mandate has been to develop widespread appreciation and support of the arts” says Cathy Schnippering, President of PRAC “and through the gallery we are able to feature many of our members’ art in a gallery setting.”
Gary Faulkner, Gallery Director says that since the gallery opened in 2011 over 50 artists have been featured in the Pickering gallery. Between January and March the 617 Liverpool, Pickering gallery will be open Saturday and Sunday between 1 and 5 pm.
