The Roland Gibson Gallery at SUNY Potsdam has selected a wood sculpture by Carmen D'Avino as the winner of this year's North Country Regional Juried Art Show. D'Avino was one of 90 artists who submitted a total of 163 entries to the juried art show. Sam Yates, the director of the Ewing Gallery of Art and Architecture at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, served as the show's jurist. He chose 91 of the works submitted to form the show now on exhibit through Saturday, Sept. 30, at the Gibson Gallery. The Gallery's fall semester exhibitions and programming are funded in part by the Sweetgrass Foundation, the SUNY Potsdam Student Government Association, the Friends of Gibson Gallery and the Potsdam College Foundation.
All programming related to the exhibitions is free, and the public is welcome to attend.
The Gibson Gallery is the recipient of a 1999-00 Institute of Museum and Library Services General Operating Support Grant. Its regular hours are Monday through Friday, from noon to 5 p.m., Tuesday to Thursday, from 7 to 9 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday, from noon to 4 p.m., except during school recesses and between exhibitions.
