The Marion Art Center is pleased to announce its upcoming exhibit, Profusion of Color: Abstracts, featuring works by Alyn Carlson, Pat Coomey Thornton and Pat Warwick. The exhibit runs May 13 through June 25. Attend the opening reception on Friday May 13 from 5-7 pm, a SouthCoast Spring Arts @ the MAC event. During the reception, learn how each artist approaches her individual creative process, creating stunning visual compositions, which are often full of vibrant color and poetic rhythms. Through mark making, layering of various media, and editing, these artists create works that ignite one’s senses and capture the essence of emotion. Guests will have the opportunity to meet the artists and ask questions. The exhibit will be on display during Art in Bloom at the MAC, scheduled June 23-25. During the three-day festival, guests can view creative floral arrangements inspired by works in the Abstract show and attend various workshops and events. Programs will be announced in late May. Art in Bloom is sponsored by a generous grant from the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency. See all upcoming MAC events at marionartcenter.org.
