All the artwork will be for sale. “Little Works” will be on dis- play until a closing reception on Nov. 19 at 7 p.m. The art center is located at 403 N. Main St. in Joseph. The artwork features a wide variety of mediums: stoneware, collage, bronze, small canvas paintings, and more. The artists participating are both local and regional, including Rene Fleming, David Martin, Melissa Duncan, Janis Carper and so many more. “The exhibit theme ‘Little Works’ speaks for itself,” said Pamela Beach, curator and art director of the Josephy Cen- ter. “I’ve seen exhibits like this in Portland and it’s really fun to see what artists come up with when there’s a size limitation. Asking artists to create art that might be out of the comfort zone becomes adventure. The artwork in the show ranges from whimsical to the highest artistic level of skill.” The Josephy Center’s current hours are Monday through Satur- day from noon-4 p.m. The gallery is also open by appointment by calling 541-432-0505. To view “Little Works” from home, look for a slide show of the exhibit at www.josephy.org. This exhibit is supported by the Oregon Community Foundation and local patronage.
