The Gallery at Town Center presents: The Push Pin Show

January 7 – February 22, 2014

The Gallery at Town Center presents a fun new show featuring the sketches of seven local artists: Charles Capp, Diana Chen, LA Hoffman, Lynne McFarland, Trish Murphy, Blanche Niznik and Emma Pirie.

In October 2013, the Arts Council produced Sketchcrawl where local artists could come to the Town Center in Lake Forest Park and sketch the Farmers Market, people shopping, eating or making art at the Experimentation Stations. Those artists were invited to share the work they made at Sketchcrawl and/or other work unframed at The Gallery. The walls have been lined in cork and the results “pinned” to the walls.

This unique grouping allows us to let our hair down and present a loose, rough and tumble peek into the artists’ work-in-progress, sketches, and first drafts. Showing urban sketching at its finest, this show promises to be equal parts fun, folly and inspiration. Featuring the work of Charles Capp, Diana Chen, LA Hoffman, Lynne McFarland, Trish Murphy, Blanche Niznik and Emma Pirie this is a great way to start the New Year!

The Gallery is located on the inside lower level of the Lake Forest Park Town Center, 17171 Bothell Way NE, Lake Forest Park 98155. Hours are 12-5 pm Tuesday - Saturday. The Push Pin Show runs from January 7 – February 22, 2014.

The Gallery also features an array of handmade work by over 90 local artists. For information on the Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council visit the webpage.
