Art for the Sake of Us All!, an eclectic show, is presently on view in Orange Hall Gallery. By its definition, it encompasses a wide-range of styles and sizes, media and techniques, and purposes. Yet, the artworks fit comfortably into the same exhibit, a visual feast of creativity.                                                                                                                                  Moodna Viaduct by Bill Cypher

The spaciousness of Orange Hall Gallery makes it the ideal venue for the show which includes 115 works by 36 artists. A replica model of the Moodna Viaduct complete with steam engine and coal car (tender) highlights the grand open center space while small to medium-sized works in oil, acrylic, watercolor, and pastel hang on accompanying movable walls. Reverse glass painted works are displayed in a nine-foot case and wood and marble sculptures have highlighted places on pedestals. Abstract works using metals and wood add a dimensional aspect while pen & ink and pencil drawings have their places. Etchings and monoprints, photographs and ceramics demonstrate still more the breadth and scope of visual art.
