Audubon Art Show, Sale
GLASTONBURY - - The Connecticut Audubon Society Center at Glastonbury is hosting its annual art show and sale on Saturday and Sunday.
The sixth annual Art for Nature’s Sake show and sale will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. rain or shine. A select group of artists and artisans inspired by the natural world will display their art and craft work in tents set up on the grounds.
Arts include oils, watercolors, ceramics, photography, wood sculptures, metal, woodcuts, bird carving and jewelry. It is an invitational show, meaning that the exhibitors are selected for the quality and originality of their work. Proceeds from the show go to support the center’s environmental education programs.
Special features will include entertainment, an auction of various items donated by participating artists and a sale of bird houses designed by Glastonbury High School art students. Philip Stein of Fairfield will demonstrate bird carving both days. There will also be craft activities for children. Saturday entertainment includes Ed Meincke playing the banjo, harmonica and recorder from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Don Seniti, “The Shanty Man,” performing sea shanties from 2 to 4 p.m. On Sunday, puppeteer Rolande Duprey will perform from noon to 2 p.m.
The center is at 1361 Main St./Route 17. For more information, call 860-633-8402.
