Main Gallery:
That Cat July 6 – August 20, 2022 Art Social: Thurs, July 21, 6-7:30pm (masks required for all attendees) Some feline lovers think cats are living sculptures. The Egyptians thought of cats as gods, shipyards put them to work to protect food stocks from vermin, others have viewed them as symbols of bad fortune. Cats inspired T.S. Elliott to write poetry while Mark Twain provided prose. This show will include a variety of work about domestic cats and their people.
