A reception for the summer exhibits at the Adams County Arts Council, including the 30 clay monoprints in my “Pigment” exhibit, is being held on Friday, July 2nd, 2021. Hours for the reception are 5:00 - 7:30 PM.

The clay monoprint medium was developed by Pennsylvania artist Mitch Lyons, who combined techniques of both pottery and printmaking to create one-of-a-kind prints utilizing clay slip rather than paints or ink. The clay board (matrix) used to design the prints will be on display during the reception. Questions for the artist are encouraged.

The Adams County Arts Council is located at 125 South Washington Street, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. There is no charge to attend the exhibit or reception.
