material pleasures -- a closer look

Orr Street Studios Facebook page says, "Come see this magical exhibition, that is sure to become known as one of the best in Orr St. Studios' history. One visitor to the gallery shared, "This exhibition is so beautiful, it makes me weep." Truly, this is one you do not want to miss. 

Have a chance to meet and chat with the many artists who make up Material Pleasures, drink some wine (or some of our famous crystal light!), eat some nibbles and stroll through Orr St. Studios.

 Material Pleasures is a Fiber arts exhibition curated by Leandra Spangler for Orr Street Studios. Featuring the work of Bonnie Ahrens, Rebecca Douglas, Janet Ghio, Laurie Harper, Ann McGinity, Barbara Overby, Carol Ann Parker, Debbie Prost, Amy Schomaker, Vicki Smith, Leandra Spangler, Jo Stealey, Ruth Walker, Jennifer Wax, Victoria Weaver and Carol Zeman."  

The opening reception is this evening, August 15, 2014 from 6-8 pm.  We hope to see many long time and new friends.  In case you are unable to attend in person, the photos below will help you enjoy the MATERIAL PLEASURES experience.
