Located at 96 Franklin Street<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"DowntownThe Downtown Artists Co-op is an association of talented local artists and interested patrons dedicated to promoting the visual arts in the Clarksville\/Montgomery County area.<\/p>\n

Downtown Artists Co-op is proud to present \u201cDifferent Leaves of Fall\u201c, an exhibit of fine art featuring eight new members of our Cooperative Gallery. The artists featured in the exhibit are Bob Privett, Tess Lankovich, Betty Liles, Charlotte Nelms, Claus \u201cDutch\u201d Mann, George Harrison, Heike Sichterman and Glenda.<\/p>\n

Just as the leaves in fall are varied in size, color, shape, and texture the works of the exhibiting artists are varied in nature. These talented new artist members have come together to create an exhibit of truly unique works, varying in style, media, colors, dimensions and meaning. With the heat of summer fading and the beauty of autumn revealing itself more with each passing day, what better way to usher in October than a lovely and diverse exhibition of fine art by the newest members of our DAC family?<\/p>\n

[320right]Bob Privett\u2019s paintings of autumn are based on the poetry of Robert Frost. Tess states, \u201dMy Fallen Leaves\u2026 the growth of something perpetual\u2026never ending.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFall is my favorite season of the year\u201d, said Heike Sichterman, \u201cwith its muted colors, such as amber, dark green, and the occasional splash of red here and there. Those are the colors I used most in my jewelry.\u201d Glenda says \u201cMy creative process takes me by surprise sometimes. I am interested in what we hold as important and what we don\u2019t. The result is a kind of religious experience, a ritual documentation of the oddities and dichotomies of the world around us.\u201c<\/p>\n

As you will see, the artists of Different Leaves of Fall are different in many ways. It is in that difference that they have molded a collaboration, a celebration and an exhibition that is sure to inspire.<\/p>\n

Please join us at the DAC Gallery, 96 Franklin Street for the opening reception of Different Leaves of Fall on Thursday, October 3rd, 5:00pm-8:00pm.
