LAC Invitational 25th Anniversary Exhibit

To celebrate the Lakewood Art Council's 25th year in existence, all current and past members and guests were invited to an opening reception for the LAC Invitational Exhibit last night at the LAC Gallery.  The turnout was great, with the crowd enjoying tasty treats, the juried exhibit and a selection of Kathy Berls' paintings in the loft gallery, students' artwork in the downstairs classroom area, and new artwork on the walls in the Co-op gallery.  As happy visitors departed for the evening, the Community Center and Gallery was left with many red dots on the walls (i.e. lots of sales!) and lots of empty dessert dishes!
