The entire show, pre-opening.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My show, Turns of the Kaleidoscope<\/span><\/em><\/a>, officially opened on Friday night, May 7, from 5-8 pm. It was part of Salem’s First Friday Art Walk and the weather was perfect. With more people vaccinated and things slowly opening, there was a steady stream of friends and art lovers throughout the evening.<\/p>\n
