Skylands Gallery to hold Art Show to benefit Rivers Edge Horse Refuge & Sanctuary

Wantage — The artists of Skylands Gallery announce their next Opening Show entitled “Enchanted Places” will be held on Saturday, April 11 from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m.

Skylands Gallery is a cooperative of artists from the Skylands Region of NJ. This month’s show will feature dozens of new works and more than 200 in all.

Join artists: Phylis Barfoot, Carol Chave, Rima Hamade, Lisa Lopez, James-Jaie Maione, John Maione Jr, Qaasim Munoz, Janet O’Neil, Liza Smith-Simpson, Diane Suter, June Ponte, Bruce Young and Justin Zimmer for a night of madness.

The art represented at the gallery ranges from photography to traditional representational painting to large modern art pieces. All artists not only have their originals for sale but affordably priced hand-signed prints with certificates of authenticity.

The show will not only feature fine art but live Jazz music by Frank Lillie and complimentary food and beverages. Admission to the show is free.

Each month the artists of the gallery seek to benefit a different local charity using their art. This month the artists have created new works which will benefit Rivers Edge Horse Rescue & Sanctuary in Newton. The artists are donating 50 percent of the sale from these pieces to Rivers Edge. In addition the artists have some hand-signed prints for sale in which 100 percent of the proceeds will benefit Rivers Edge.
