HORSE SHOW by Rick Booth at Area 61 Gallery through December 12th

Area 61 Gallery is hosting guest artist and local sculptor – Rick Booth – and his latest body of work, “Horse Show” for First Friday December (12/2). This spectacular series of "Draft Horses" are all sculpted from white pine, designed and finished in ‘classic Rick style’ with intense detail, wild imagination and a bit of humor. Rick will be in the gallery from 6-8pm during First Friday to show and discuss this series with guests one-on-one. The pieces are available for purchase to add to collections, but will only be available through December 12th.

In addition, each of the gallery’s 20+ local artists have delivered a new piece to be displayed for purchase in the gallery’s back “featured artists” area through the end of the year. There is a diverse selection of styles, mediums and price points including metal & clay sculpture, wearable art and jewelry, oil, acrylic and mixed media paintings, fiber and weavings, woodworks and more.

Area 61 Gallery (and many of Chattanooga’s galleries) hosts monthly First Friday Open House events and opening receptions the 1st Friday of each month. At Area 61, our extended hours are from 6-8 pm for First Friday. Drop in monthly to see what is new, meet the artists, enjoy a new featured artist show, add to your collection and support Chattanooga’s creative culture.
