There is no need to wait until then. Two women artists are being celebrated this weekend for their contributions to the arts.
The Distillery
Gallery presents a modest retrospective of the work of
sculptor, and longtime Distillery resident, Joyce McDaniel. The exhibition
includes pieces from throughout the artist's career, including her early welded
steel work, inspired by her upbringing in Oklahoma, to her later constructions
that combined expanded steel mesh, overlaid with delicate hand-made and
dressmaker pattern paper.
