\"Opening<\/a><\/p>\n

I have exciting news to share. There is a new art gallery in Salem and I’m one of the five founding artists. The gallery, located at the Willamette Heritage Center<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, borders downtown and is across the street from the Amtrak Station and Willamette University. A recent press release gives all of the pertinent information:<\/p>\n

After a successful year at the Willamette Heritage Center (formerly Mission Mill Museum), Compass Gallery celebrates its first anniversary with a transition to a cooperative gallery under the auspices of the Art Studios at Mission Mill. The gallery will represent five artists who are members of the Art Studios: Dayna Collins, Bonnie Hull, Leonard Kelly, Kathy Shen and Rollie Wisbrock. The artists will curate monthly rotating exhibitions of their artwork in the gallery space. The first group exhibition opened to the public on October 1 and an opening reception is planned for Thursday, October 8 from 3:00-5:00 pm in the gallery. This event is free and open to the public. Gallery hours are Monday-Saturday, 10:00 am \u2013 5:00 pm. The exhibition will be on view through November 4.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

On Thursday, four of us gathered to hang our first show.<\/p>\n
