The Central Adirondack Art Show is known for its wide variety of fine arts including acrylics, oils, watercolors, drawings, photography, pastels, graphics, mixed media, and sculpture.

The exhibition dates back to 1952, when artwork was displayed on chicken wire in Miriam Kashiwa’s yard, and has grown into an impressive exhibition that amasses high quality work from the region. 

In addition to the Central Adirondack Art Show, the opening will also feature handmade books and metal wall sculpture from artist Patrick Kinz-Thompson. His exhibit titled “Indite/ Inditement” will run through June 15th.

Kinz-Thompson, of Rochester, graduated from Rochester Institute of Technology with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in metalcrafts and jewelry from RIT’s School for American Crafts.

The reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. and will feature live music from Joe Sweet.

Admission is free and refreshments will be served.

The exhibition runs through June 22 in the Community and Foley galleries.
