A Reminder of Summer

"Bottle on the Beach" is the name of this oil painting by Lauren Marsh of Pottstown. 

Blogger's Note: This was provided by the folks at the community college and normally, I would have waited to post it. But this painting reminds us that eventually, summer will return and frankly, I thought we could all use a little reminder of warmth right now.

Montgomery County Community College will be highlighting the talent of its art students at its Ninth Annual Art Students’ Exhibition and Competition, which opens Monday, March 17, and continues through Friday, April 28, at the Fine Arts Gallery, North Hall, 16 High St., Pottstown.

Approximately 50 students will be displaying their artwork in the show. 

“The Tent,” oil painting by Sarah Schleiden, Gilbertsville.
