BPA Gallery to Host November 'Foreign Friends' First Today Art Walk

Join us in the BPA Gallery November 3 for an artist reception and an enjoyable evening of art and friends.

Mark Fredrichs' November exhibit in the BPA Gallery offers a fun romp through the unusual among us, and he hopes his collection will bring smiles to all who visit the show. While living in Mexico for a number of years, Mark picked up a brush to record the vast array of diverse people, places, and a few animals that crossed through his world. His years of study in Europe, Asia, America, and Mexico are vibrantly reflected is this very colorful display. For this collection, Mark drew from his professional history as a psychotherapist, using his trained eye to seek out the character inside and unveil qualities that are rarely revealed on the surface.

The BPA Gallery showcases regional artists in monthly rotating exhibits in the C. Keith Birkenfeld Lobby and regularly participates in the First Friday Art Walk from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. Gallery hours are 12:00 - 4:00 p.m. Tuesday - Friday plus one hour prior to each performance. Admission is free, and information is available online at www.bainbridgeperformingarts.org, by phone at 206.842.8569 or in person at BPA, 200 Madison Avenue North, Bainbridge Island.
