The Island Gallery, Jeffrey Moose Gallery and Bergh Images are proud to announce the formation of a Virtual First Friday for this Friday, April 3rd, at 6 pm. These three galleries are participating in addition to a live musical act, violinist Ranger Sciacca.
Though we all opened shows in March, we will continue our exhibits through April, giving all a chance to dive deeper into the work which has been on display.
As we can’t physically join together on Winslow Way on a beautiful spring evening, the work-around was online using relatively simple tools: a cell phone and a laptop. Through Facebook, we will, one at a time, stream live video from our galleries, followed by a dessert of solo violin from Island treasure, Ranger Sciacca. You must be on Facebook to view these events.
Between each approximately ten-minute stream will be a five to ten minute break, time to fill a wine glass and redirect your browser to the next gallery’s FB page. Use a digital time device to accurately follow the schedule:
6:00-6:10: Jeffrey Moose Gallery, 181 Winslow Way East, Ste F, Bainbridge Island, WA
Evy Olsen Halvorsen - New Paintings. Oil on canvas and encaustic works by a well established Kitsap talent. Strong Abstract Expressionist compositions with occasional figurative elements speak to themes including Nordic Heritage, childhood memories and climate change. Though the doors are closed, we are still designing and building picture frames for any artwork.
6:20-6:30: The Island Gallery, 400 Winslow Way East, # 120, Bainbridge Island, WA
Abstract Landscapes: Corinne Carbone’s abstract paintings reveal two conversations, one with a physical landscape dominated by bold shapes and strong colors, the other the inner dialogue of the artist, a mental landscape expressed in layers and textures and a neutral color palette. As an encore, we are introducing enticing spring ensembles from fiber artists Maggy Pavlou, Amy Nguyen, Linda St. Angelo and Diane Prekup.
6:40-6:50: Bergh Images, 400 Winslow Way East, # 115, Bainbridge Island, WA
Fine art photographer Andrew Bergh exhibits his evocative images in eclectic genres, including landscape/nature, urban, and travel, and in different mediums, including metal, acrylic, canvas, and custom-framed B&W prints. Recent images from Spain are currently being highlighted.
7:00 -? Solo violin concert by Ranger Sciacca. Live from Ranger’s bedroom, Bainbridge Island. Jazz violin virtuoso Ranger, leader of Ranger and the Re-Arrangers, will perform for 15-20 minutes, playing waltzes and other favorites from his repertoire.
PLEASE NOTE: The Gallery is following State Guidelines on date of reopening. The opening for our Annual Print Show, originally scheduled for April, has been moved to May.
