For several decades now, the duCret School of Art (NJ's oldest art
school) and Swain Galleries (NJ's oldest retail gallery) have united to
showcase the works of award winning duCret students each and every year.
On Saturday, July 18, from 5pm to 7pm, art lovers and supporters of duCret are invited to the Swain Galleries
to view this years 'Selected Works'. This opportunity, which also is a
classroom requirement, enables duCret students to become part of a
'live' gallery exhibition. Many times the student works are sold through
the gallery. Over the years Swain Galleries has also kept on board,
some of the promising new artist's works, and for many, this
introduction into the gallery scene affords them the ability to
springboard to do other gallery exhibitions. At this coming exhibition,
guests can mill about, view all the works of duCret's varied artists and
meet the artists themselves. All Open Studio attendees are invited! The work is family friendly and the
exhibition is free to the public. Swain Galleries is located at 703
Watchung Ave., Plainfield, NJ.
