As the temperatures cool and the leaves begin to change, come visit The Candleberry Gallery at 210 S. Talbot Street in St. Michaels to see what’s changing in the gallery.
October brings a wonderful exhibit by the Plein Air Painters of the Chesapeake Bay (PAPCB). The Plein Air Painters of the Chesapeake Bay started in April 2014 when Jackie Pfaff-Pratt, Elaine Shortall, Kate Quinn and Diane DuBois Mullaly began painting outdoors together on Tuesdays. The group now has over 40 members and paints together every Tuesday, April through October, at Mid-Shore farms, private estates, villages and parks. Membership in PAPCB is free, and all mediums and skill levels are welcome. For more info and painting locations, please email Kate Quinn at [email protected] or Diane DuBois Mullaly at [email protected]. Meet these talented painters at a special reception at the gallery on Saturday, October 1, from 1 to 4 pm.
The Gallery is also home to the work of featured artists Maryetta and John Dynan, creators of exquisite fine silver jewelry. Using simplicity and elegance as their guiding principles, the Dynans “believe that each piece of silver jewelry they create is an art form that has the power to inspire one’s feelings, as well as provoke conversations about the many marvels found in our earth.”
