More than 50 artists are exhibiting their latest works in the Elmhurst Artists’ Guild Fall Member Show, running from October 22 through November 29 in the EAG Gallery at the Elmhurst Art Museum, 150 S. Cottage Hill Ave., Elmhurst, Illinois.
A reception open to the public will be held in the gallery Friday, October 25, from 7 to 9 pm. Admission to the gallery and the museum is free all day Fridays.
The show features unusual artwork such as Laliberte’s acrylic on Ugandan tree bark cloth; Lee’s oil, cold wax, sand on wood panel mixed media; Loane’s acrylic on board butterfly-series painting, and Lucietto’s ceramic and polychrome sculpture of St. John the Baptist.
EAG members are exhibiting landscapes, portraits and abstract works, most of which are for sale. “Many of our members work in the arts professionally, and the artwork included in this show is equal to that found in many commercial galleries,” according to Heather Jones-Pryor, EAG President. Entries show different approaches to art, using watercolors, ceramics, oils, acrylics, collages and photographs. A portion of the proceeds from sales benefits the Guild and the Elmhurst Art Museum.
