We firmly believe that creativity flourishes in shared spaces\, where ideas can merge and evolve. Through our work\, we aim to illustrate the power of art to unite and inspire.” \n\n\n\nThis show will be a good chance to pick out some one-of-a-kind Christmas gifts for the whole family!  Live Irish music will be offered by the Open Gallery Players. \n\n\n\nRegular gallery hours: Tue – Sat 10 – 4:30 pm.  812- 881-6475 \n\n\n\nThe Shircliff Gallery\, First and Harrison Streets will be showing Opusilva: Woodland Works\, mixed media pieces by Sarah Wolfe.
