OLEAN, N.Y. — The Tri-County Arts Council has updated and reorganized its Artist Market and it is open to the public Tuesday to Friday noon to 6 p.m. and Saturday from noon to 5 p.m. at 110 West State St in Olean.
Currently in the Tri County Arts Council gallery until August is the “Zweygardt Sculpture.” From Glenn Zweygardt, “The theme of my sculpture is the placement of myself in relation to nature. While working in materials such as metal, stone, and glass, I am telling three-dimensional stories that capture my life experiences immersed in my perception of collective consciousness. It is my intention that these stories, spoken through an expression of form, texture, and color, will enter human consciousness.”
Also, there are two Kids Summer Camp classes both coming up soon from July 25th to July 29th. The first class is Kids Clay Camp for ages 5-7 and will be from 9 to 10:30 a.m. With the younger kids, classes will work on hand-building techniques to create small sculptures. Bring your own smocks/aprons and hand towels to the class.
Secondly, there is Clay Camp for ages 7-12 and will be from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. The older kids will work on some simple throwing techniques and simple hand-building techniques. Bring your own smocks/aprons and hand towels to the class. Sign-up online or call (716)-372-7455.
