Masks are required for all gallery visitors and “Meet the Artist” attendees with a distance of three feet requested. Gallery visits are free and open to the public Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Brian Murphy shared this statement:
“Art begins with an idea. A thought. A feeling. A memory. Take something you are passionate about. Continue to listen and observe. Grow by both learning from others who might share your ideas as well as those who might have a different point of view.
“The work you see in this exhibit is full of exploration; ideas that comment on our culture and world, both blending the past with images from pop culture, children’s literature, comics, music and repurposed materials to communicate a message, all set to a soundtrack that exists inside the mind of the artist.
“Make art. Buy art. Support artists. Share your story. Use the world to inspire you.”
