Art FROM the Park

                          gallery gala  friday, aug 6 5pm to 7pm

art, beer, wine, artists, and you

Following in the footsteps of last year's very popular "If a Tree Falls in the City" exhibit, wood from one of the most beloved parks in Wausau has found its way into the CVA's galleries with "Art FROM the Park", a new tree-cycling art exhibition. As some of Marathon Park's oldest pine, ash and elm trees die from natural causes, they take on a new life as captivating artwork in our galleries, showing off their distinctive woodgrain, whorls, knots and shapes.  From small bowls, pens and containers to large tables, benches and installations; this show and the many artists that participate, will surprise you.

 all art sales equally benefit the CVA and the Parks Foundation
