Two Oak Street Art members are happy to have works on display in the Civic Center Corridor Gallery in Carbondale, Illinois. The exhibit Focal Point is sponsored by Carbondale Community Arts and includes photos by our own Darby Ortolano (first photo below) and Ann R. Fischer (second photo below).
Running from May 31 through June 29, 2018, the exhibit is available for viewing on weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., as well as during public events. We hope you will stop by the Civic Center at 200 South Illinois Ave. in Carbondale (map below). In addition to seeing photos by Darby and Ann, you will also find images by many other southern Illinois community members, including two artists who participated in our 2018 Oak Street Fine Arts Fair: Eldon Benz and Helen Ashraf.
A few weeks before the 2018 Oak Street Fine Arts Fair, we spent a fun morning talking with reporter Chanda Green as Byron Hetzler snapped photos. We loved the new feature story, Collective Souls: Oak Street Artists Nurture the Connections between Art and Community. Pick up a copy of the (beautiful, full-color, glossy) magazine where The Southern Illinoisan is sold, and see Chanda's story and Byron's photos online at the Life & Style website here.
We are so grateful to the organizations and businesses supporting the 2018 art fair coming up Saturday! (See links below the graphic.) Event RSVP here. 
Yes, yes, yes! Come out to Oak St. in Murphysboro on Saturday, April 21, for our 2018 Fine Arts Fair, 10am to 5pm. Highlights:

Jennifer will edit things down to about 6 minutes for a spot (in April) on her Morning Conversation series. Stay tuned!
We're excited to have 32 visual artists already booked for the April 21 Oak Street Fine Arts Fair (as of March 19). On top of that, 7 musical acts will be keeping the Oak Street Stage humming all day. Woop!  |
