Launched in 1978, Blue Heron
Gallery displays an extensive
collection of representational
contemporary art in a range of
mediums, including oil, egg
tempera, watercolor, pastels,
acrylic, photography, etchings,
sculpture and limited edition
prints. The gallery maintains an
impressive roster of
award-winning artists from
around the United States, many
of whom have been displaying
their work here for years.
Owner Roy Thurston is especially
proud of the relaxed atmosphere
that pervades this light, open
gallery, which has exhibit areas
on two floors. Believing that
art should be accessible and not
intimidating, Roy's welcoming
ambiance is an important quality
of the gallery. Blue Heron hosts
artists' receptions on most
Saturday evenings in July and
August (please see the
SHOW
SCHEDULE), offering new art and
the opportunity to meet the
artist. |
