SUMMARY:August First Friday Gallery Opening
DESCRIPTION:On August 1st\, from 6-9pm\, join us for First Friday! Enjoy these openings: \nIn the Harrison Gallery\, Summer’s Imprint: A Celebration of Nature by Lisa VanMeter Walls. Using basswood and linoleum blocks\, VanMeter Walls expresses her belief in the importance of observing and appreciating the natural world. Each piece celebrates the intricacies of our shared environment\, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a world where beauty and vitality are front and center. \nIn the Gallery Annex\, Creature Feature\, a group show. This colorful group exhibition\, by the 67th Street Printmakers\, highlights a diverse range of earthly creatures through printmaking. Each artist offers a unique perspective—playful\, wild\, or mysterious—showcasing the richness of life on our planet through technique\, texture\, and imagination. \nIn the Speck Gallery\, PetCon\, a group show. This exhibition celebrates the human race’s love of their animal companions. The show honors the unconditional love\, trust\, and joy that animals bring into our lives. \nIn the City Gallery\, Unconditional by Emily Persic. In a world that feels increasingly fraught\, Persic discovers joy in creating portraits of people and their pets. The true gift of our animal companions is their unceasing love and trust. \nIn the Hank & Dolly’s Gallery\, Rescatados by Henry A. Garcia. Garcia is a self taught artist specializing in dry erase marker. Using home made tools\, stippling\, and scratching techniques he focuses on bringing animal subjects to life while evoking the thought of animal preservation. The portraits in Rescatados represent beloved pets that he and his family have rescued. This is reflective of the love and care that each pet received when being welcomed into their home.  \nGuests can also enjoy: \nIn the Historic Gymnasium\, enjoy baked goods handmade by local bakers curated by Emily Brungard of @tasteindianapolis for BakeCon! An old-fashioned cake walk and live music with singer-songwriter Pascal Glock will accompany this sweet festivity.  \nIn the Courtyard\, interact with our friends from the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site with a mini version of their annual Wicket World of Croquet. \nOn the Sky Deck\, celebrate the 130th year of the Indianapolis Recorder\, complete with live DJ music and more.  \nAll shows will open at 6:00 pm on Friday\, August 1\, 2025. \nVisitors can take in-person gallery tours Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm.
