The revitalization of downtown continues.

The latest event that promises to draw more residents and visitors to the historic downtown is"Art Senoia." The art show debuts April 25 with an opening reception from 6:30 p.m.-9:30 p.m. at 20 Main Street in historic downtown Senoia. This is the first event of the newly formed Cultural Arts Committee of the Senoia Downtown Development Authority.

The show will feature a range of beautiful paintings along with fine photography and art quilts. The art is for sale, and a portion of the proceeds goes to support the Cultural Arts Committee.

Local painters taking part in the show are David Boyd, Victor Dallas, Anne Harwell, Martin Pate, Jane Whitehurst, Joy Whitley and Yun Liu. Photographers showing their artwork are Paul Conlan and Jeremy Harwell. Art quilts by Claudia Wood are also included in the exhibit.

After the opening, the exhibit is open Saturdays from 11 a.m.-5 p.m and Sundays from 1 p.m.-5 p.m. through Memorial Day. It can also be viewed during the week by students and other groups by appointment. The reception and art show are free and open to the public.

For more information, call Suzanne Helfman at 770-599-8182 or Claudia Wood at 770-599-0047.
