Art show to feature equine, sports theme
Equine and sporting artwork from artists throughout the country will be on display for the Aiken County chapter of the American Red Cross’ Sporting Life Art Show and Sale.
The event will be held at the Aiken Center for the Arts on Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
The event is free to attend. The proceeds from the show will benefit the local Red Cross.
Suzanne Jackson, executive director of the Aiken County Red Cross, said the Aiken Center for the Arts and Beresford Gallery in Unionville, Pa., and Saratoga Springs, N.Y., have partnered with the Red Cross to put together the event.
“This show is very important to the Red Cross to support local disaster preparedness,” Jackson said.
Elizabeth Beer with Beresford Gallery of Unionville, Pa., said the two-day show will feature sculptures, bronzes, wall hangings, oil paintings, watercolors, pastels and some photography. There will also be several works from international artists, as well as those who are well established or developing.
“We tried to bring good pieces that are well priced,” she said.
Janet Harkins, the co-chairman of the event, said the show will offer a good representation of Aiken’s equestrian and sporting interests in the works being displayed.
