Artists & Makers Studios is pleased to once again host David Amoroso, this time for the month of April. The exhibit will run from March 31st through April 22nd, with a First Friday opening on April 3rd from 5-8pm. ICON-A-RAMA! highlights Pop Culture Icons who have inspired the artist through their courage, authenticity and rebellion. The Pop Culture Icons featured in ICON-A-RAMA! have set strong aspirational standards, motivated us, and shaped our values through their personal journeys, set-backs and triumphs. They have faced unique battles which has helped to teach us all about courage, self-sacrifice, self-control and willpower. Some of the portraits featured in this collection honor Social Justice leaders and activists, while others reflect contemporary music and entertainment – – or superstars who are no longer with us. During difficult times, these individuals have provided hope and served as symbols of transformation and renewal. ICON-A-RAMA! fosters community, drives social change, and offers a sense of belonging and hope. Ann Corbett will hang a mini-solo exhibit in the Lounge Gallery. Enjoy the sculptural work of Francis Maduka Uduh in studio 11, along with nineteen Gallery 209 Member Artists exhibiting their latest work. Open Studios building-wide will welcome visitors to visit and learn. Shop and support local working artists, makers, and professionals. Light fare generously sponsored each month by The Chesapeake Framing Company.
