PORT ANGELES — Artists of all stripes, from professional to nervous first-timers, are encouraged to take part in Bring Your Own Art, the semiannual show at Studio Bob, the gallery and event space upstairs at 1181/2 E. Front St.
All visual-art media are welcome: photography, painting, sculpture and beyond, for an entry fee of $5 per piece. Artists may submit up to three works, and if they choose to sell them, Studio Bob will not charge a commission.
This show is open to all ages and provides a low-cost chance to show off art that has yet to see daylight, said gallery owner Bob Stokes.
Bring Your Own Art is held each winter and each summer at Studio Bob, complete with an opening party for artists and art lovers to mingle.
“The January show is a lot bigger than the July show,” said Stokes, since wintry weather keeps artists indoors, creating.
Bring Your Own Art entries should be dropped off at Studio Bob between noon and 9 p.m. Friday, while Stokes is available to answer questions at 415-990-0457.
The show’s opening reception comes Saturday from 5 p.m. till 8 p.m. with refreshments available at The Loom, the bar adjacent to Studio Bob. Then Bring Your Own Art will stay on display Sunday from noon till 3 p.m.
