Turn off the TV and get out to support the local arts scene. The Collector’s Gallery in City Market is having a reception this Thursday evening to kick off a show of new work by local artist David Connell.
David Connell, in addition to being a talented musician of The Connells fame, is a very accomplished painter as well. His work is primarily North Carolina landscapes and cityscapes with interesting buildings and structures. Having traveled most of North Carolina’s highways and byways myself, several of the scenes are familiar and comforting.
A portion of the proceeds are being donated to the Conservation Trust of North Carolina to help preserve our states rich natural resources. If you can’t make it Thursday to meet the artist, you can still view the work until June 9.
