Easton’s newest art gallery, 717 Gallery, presents a National Artists Invitational Exhibition from May 2 to July. This bright, spacious gallery opened in October 2013, amidst one of the East Coast’s most vibrant cultural centers. 717 Gallery features nationally recognized artists, and hosts invitational exhibitions and gallery events throughout the year.
The following artists have been accepted into the National Artists Invitational Exhibition: Carolyn Anderson from Montana, Garin Baker from New York, Eleinne Basa from New Jersey, Marcia Burtt from California, John Michael Carter from Kentucky, Romel de la Torre from Illinois, Louis Escobedo from Maryland, Max Ginsburg from New York, Peggi Kroll-Roberts from California, Robert Lemler from Arizona, Jennifer McChristian from California, Ned Mueller from Washington, Ray Roberts from California, and William Wray from California.
Surrounded by colorful, innovative artwork in this exciting new space, gallery director Yolanda Escobedo says artists and collectors appreciate the gallery’s inspirational appeal and diversity. Here, one will find evocative figures, still lifes, street scenes, and landscapes created by some of America’s best artists, all under one lovely roof.
“This exhibition offers the opportunity to experience art that depicts an extraordinary way of seeing life around us,” says Yolanda Escobedo. “These paintings capture pleasing harmony using atmospheric light and wonderful abstracts.”
