Loralee Grace: Hues & Horizons
January 11 - February 22
Opening Reception: Sun., January 26 - 2:00 pm
Loralee Grace is an award-winning artist from Grand Rapids; now based in Ferndale. Throughout her twenties, Loralee sold her possessions in order to journey and live across twenty-seven countries on five continents. She took risks to travel and build a library of creative and cultural sights, experiences, and knowledge to draw from in her paintings. Along the way, she painted constantly, created murals and participated in fundraiser shows, and countless exhibitions.
For her show at the library, Loralee will be bringing a dazzling array of recent abstracts, as well as some breathtaking reimagined landscapes. Mark your calendars for January 26!
The Art and Exhibitions Committee’s mission is to promote and foster an appreciation of two and three-dimensional art for library patrons, through exhibits, lectures, and an expanded collection of art books.
