First Friday Shows

Nate, Painting, gives advice to anyone showing their art work at local shops in "First Friday Shows"

One of the very best aspects of Scranton is its dedication to supporting local artists like myself.

I’ve participated a number of times and I strongly encourage all Marywood art…

I know I’m super excited to carve pumpkins (I love Halloween!)  and also…

First Friday

Annachiara, painting, is happy to be back in Scranton to attend the monthly downtown art walk in "First Friday"

I always like walking around for a little while during First Friday each month in downtown Scranton. I’ve never been along the whole route but I always make a stop at the AFA Gallery.

There was a wide variety of pieces this month – paintings, political cartoons, sculptures etc. I highly recommend seeing it if you have the chance.

There was also…
