College of Central Florida recently issued the following announcement.
“Town and Country” will be the theme for the Visual Artists’ Society Summer Spotlight XXV exhibit, which showcases the work of local and regional artists in a wide variety of mediums.
The exhibit will be on display at the College of Central Florida Webber Gallery May 16-July 28. The Webber Gallery is located at the CF Ocala Campus, 3001 S.W. College Road.
The Summer Spotlight is one of two annual opportunities for Visual Artists’ Society members to display the works that showcase their talent and imagination. The society has more
than 100 members from all over Marion County and Central Florida, including professional and amateur artists and many of CF’s talented students. Because VAS has a varied membership, exhibits display a variety of styles and mediums, including more traditional paintings and photographs as well as 3-D objects and digital media.
The exhibit will be judged by Ronda Richley, who has 50 years of art experience both as an educator and owner of various art businesses from coast to coast. She received her
Master of Studio Art degree from the University of California. Her artwork has been on display in Barcelona, Spain; the United Kingdom; Zurich, Switzerland; New York; Los
Angeles and Art Basel Miami. She has judged both student and professional art exhibits. Richley was introduced to Ocala through Marion Cultural Alliance’s “Horse Fever 20/20”
exhibit, and she recently relocated here. Her horse “Sunny Daze” can be found at the College of Central Florida Vintage Farm Campus.
An opening reception and awards ceremony will be held Tuesday, May 24, from 5-7 p.m. Webber Gallery summer hours are Monday-Thursday, 10 a.m.-4 p.m., and admission is
free.
