Ungerecht, Celia Scher Wagner, Robert Zorko.Each year the organizing committee chooses one artist as Featured Artist, dedicating significant space to exhibit a larger selection of work – a kind of solo show within the group show. This year’s Featured Artist is Michael Manwaring, formerly a San Francisco-based graphic designer, now a Trinity parishioner who’s lived in Portland since 2006. He will show paintings, drawings and sculptures.
Artists Among Us kicks off with a gala opening and reception on Friday, May 11, from 6 to 9 PM. The artists will be in Kempton Hall to talk about their work, and there will be live music as well as light food prepared by a local chef.
Advance tickets are on sale now at the Sunday Cathedral Arts Table and in the Trinity Bookstore for $20; they will be $25 at the door the night of the event. Wine will be available for purchase.
The exhibit and sale will continue on Saturday, May 12, 10 AM-4 PM and Sunday, May 13, 9 AM-4 PM. Admission Saturday and Sunday is free. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Trinity Arts and the Trinity Outreach programs.
