Brush N’ Pour, an art supply business, will host an event next Friday called ‘Sip N’ the Art Gallery’ where artists from Linden will have the opportunity to display their work.
The event will be part of Linden’s Town Week, which is slated to kick off today and run until May 2.
“This event is one that will enable artists to have confidence in their passion through this recognition,” owner and founder of Brush N’ Pour Taneila Croal said.
The artists who will be exhibiting are said to be as young as 11 years old while the oldest is 30. So far, seven artists have indicated interest in showcasing their work. Taneila said she was hoping to have three other artists to come on board. There is no entry fee attached. Artists are only required to send their pieces to Taneila so she could determine whether they are suitable to be exhibited.
Owing to COVID-19 restrictions, people interested in viewing the event will be required to make reservations. However, Taneila said that no one will be turned away as a rotation system will be in effect that allows up to 40 percent of the venue’s capacity at a time. She added that all COVID guidelines will be enforced; patrons will be required to wear their face masks, be sanitized upon entry, and maintain social distancing.
The event is free to the public. However, Brush N’ Pour is relying on other businesses to join as sponsors which will cater to the purchasing wine for the event.
The venue for the event is the Egbert Benjamin Conference Hall. Sip N’ the Art Gallery is scheduled to start at 1 pm. For reservations or for more information, Taneila can be reached at 613-1818.
