Peer Group: 5 Photographers Who Inspire Each Other

We are having this exhibition because we want to convey what happens when visually oriented people make the time to get together and let our pictures do the communicating. We have been doing just that for two years now, meeting about once a month to enjoy each other's company and to think with our eyes.

Weekend Planner - Art

Napkin art can refer to the art of folding napkins (napkin origami) or it can refer to those sketches or poems executed in a taproom under the inspiration of a third martini. Providing an additional excuse for the artistically inclined to head out to their local watering holes this weekend is the 2012 Napkin Art Show at Selections Gallery in Easthampton.
