Three local galleries participate in Chamber exhibit
More than a dozen piec-
es of art, including photos,
watercolors, ceramics and
sculptures in metal and
wood, are part of a new art
display at the Florence Area
Chamber of Commerce
Visitor Center on display
through the month of Au-
gust.
The chamber features a
different local art exhibit
each month.
“The chamber is list-
ed in the local Passport to
the Arts art tour map be-
cause of our ever-changing
displays of photography,
paintings or three-dimen-
sional art by local artists
and galleries,” said Cham-
ber Executive Director
Bettina Hannigan. “Art is
growing in its importance
for enhancing Florence’s
tourism business, and that
helps all businesses.”
The current display of
local artistry features a va-
riety of works by local and
Northwest artists from the
Sticks and Stones, Blue
Heron and Wind Drift gal-
leries in Old Town.
“Visitors will find a beau-
tiful display and a wide
variety of photography,
sculpture and artwork in
several mediums by lo-
cally-, regionally- and na-
tionally-acclaimed artists,”
Hannigan added.
Jack Butler, the galleries’
owner, said, “It’s exciting
to be invited to participate
in the chamber’s monthly
exhibit. We appreciate the
many ways that the cham-
ber supports Florence’s
growing and vibrant arts
community.”
The three galleries, en-
tering their 30th year in
Florence, are contemporary
craft galleries that focus on
American-made craft.
“We are delighted to
have a sampling from all
three galleries’ collections
on display at the chamber’s
visitor center this month,”
Butler said. “Each of our
galleries offers something
different. The variety found
in our galleries, and the
other great shops and gal-
leries of Old Town, sets
Florence apart from other
communities where you go
into a half-dozen different
shops and find the same
thing over and over. There
is a tremendous diversity of
work in our community.”
Sticks and Stones Gallery
is at 1368 Bay St.; the Blue
Heron Gallery is at 1385
Bay St.; and Wind Drift
Gallery is at 1395 Bay St.,
all in Historic Old Town
Florence. All three can be
found at oregoncoastgaller-
ies.net. Butler also owns Of
Land & Sea Gallery in Flor-
ence as well as Breach the
Moon and Oceanic Arts in
Newport.
