Ever renovated a room to turn into an art gallery and then planned an opening only to be interrupted by a global pandemic? Well, if that every happened to you, be sure to have the Gallery of Light team in your corner.
The Gallery of Light team took on the challenging conditions by hosting a Virtual Gallery Opening on June 20. Nearly 60 people attended to view a very interesting Art Talk by photographer Matt Stock. He detailed his techniques as a night photographer, showing us several pieces virtually hanging on the Gallery of Light walls.
In case you missed the showing, you can go to mattstockphoto.com to see all his wonderful photos.
The Gallery team including Marilyn Traeger, Jen Berse, Enid Garber and Linda Faber are just getting warmed up.
