To provide a convenient Art Gallery for the Community, the Arts and Design Society presents month-long free exhibits in their studio windows. In August, the featured artist was Anne Johnston, an artist for many years, who each year chooses a different theme for ADSO Windows. Her choice for this year was flowers, in an array of bright colors.
The September window display will be a member show (just like last year). One piece per Artist will grace the windows for the entire month, and includes all paint mediums, clay, photo and sculpture. Any ADSO artist who wishes to participate, please contact ADSO office by August 31, with information on your display, price and name.
View at 17 First Street, SE, Fort Walton Beach. For more information, or for purchase, contact ADSO at adso@artsdesignsociety.org or go by the office, Tuesday-Friday, noon-4 p.m.
