Gordy Fine Art & Framing to Host Gallery Sale

Overstuffed closets can be a beautiful thing, especially when the stuffing is in the form of luscious oil paintings, hand-thrown pottery, crisp watercolors, and hand-pulled prints. Gallery owners, Brian and Genny Gordy, have decided to thin out the works left in their care by offering the first comprehensive art sale at their downtown shop.

Included in the exhibit/sale will be many recognizable names - Alan Patrick, Jim Faulkner, Margie Prim, David and Sarojini Johnson, Bill Zack, Shonet Martin, Eric Ernstberger, Martha Gilliom, Jerry Henning, Sally Myers, Carol Burt, the Gordy's, and others. "Artists love to sell their work. Galleries love to sell artists' work. Art patrons and collectors love to have beautiful things for their homes," offered son, Ben, a framer and burgeoning art collector. "Of course, we also love to put beautiful frames on that art whenever we can."

The Gordy gallery wall will be filled with dozens of pieces, salon-style, throughout August. As objects sell, they will be replaced with other pieces, also on sale. The public is invited to attend the First Thursday opening on August 7th, from 5 to 8 PM, where light refreshments will be served. The exhibit may also be viewed during normal business hours, Monday - Friday, 9 AM to 5:30 PM, and Saturday, 9 to 3, or by appointment. Gordy Fine Art & Framing Company is located at 224 East Main Street, next door to Civic Theatre. For more information, call 284-8422, or visit www.gordyframing.com.
