Airborne art creates a magical world Walking into the Carroll Arts Center’s Tevis Gallery right now is like walking through the looking glass. On the other side is a somewhat surreal, magical world, sparkly objects floating all around you, brightly colored fish swimming right by you, a green lizard walking across the ceiling, a skeleton dancing to its own tune. This is one different art exhibit.
Exhibits, Ain’t That a Frame move from chaos to art Transitions can be disconcerting. So I was reminded when I received the call from Mom, distraught because all of our preparations for the digital television transition had been for naught. No signal was coming through.
Art in the Park shines on a perfect day I woke up early last Saturday morning and listened. Silence. I have a metal roof, so I can hear rain, even a drizzle. But I heard nothing but the birds. The outdoor art festival season in Carroll County would have a good start.
Unexpected art makes wedding special I went to a wedding last weekend, full of the usual smiles and tears that are always a part of such celebrations. It was also full of art, although I doubt more than a few of us took note. But noticed or not, the art was there.

Sculpture born using ‘lost wax’ A while back, I wrote about a presentation on space. Not the final frontier, but the way negative space informs the positive in both music and the visual arts, the enigma inherent in needing emptiness to make sense of the whole.
Pen Women show artistic talents I was confused. Not an unusual occurrence, I’ll grant you, but the Carroll Arts Center was playing with my mind.
Finding crazy in being normal McDaniel College has an abundance of art students. At least that’s how it seems these days, with one senior show after another highlighting the work of new artists about to be launched out into the world.
What: “Artists Choice” Where: Community Gallery at the Carroll Arts Center, 91 W. Main St., Westminster
