Did you know more than 60 mid-valley creatives are exhibiting at Pop Up art gallery in the Salem Center mall? New artists this month include Nancy Eng, Jody Bartruff, Diana Dettwyler, Patricia Young, Chuck Magee, Jeanne Ground, Patricia St. Clair and Marcie Wolf. Marcie’s encaustic, or hot wax paintings, are on the front wall for First Wednesday.
Sadly, Timmy Bwell and Kerry Elwood are leaving us this month. We’ll miss the mandalas and rugged shorelines. You can catch Timmy’s Buddhas at Venti’s for the next three months. Thanks to all the Pop Up artists! We’re open 5-8ish tonight. Ask for a refreshment!

Local art is a hit in the mall

Black Friday shoppers were loving the live painting, music, poetry readings and leaving their creative musings in the Cave of Sticky Secrets. They showed their appreciation with a steady stream of art going out the door. Office Diving opened the show at 1 a.m. with some power and then pulled it back for a truly intimate session with a few thousand mall wanderers. Surreal.

Stop by all during December for the freshest local art in the mid-valley!
