The San Marcos Art League will be hosting their annual members’ show titled “A Place For Art” this summer from June 1st through July 24th at The Price Center & Garden. Because of social distancing practices, SMAL will not have an opening reception for the exhibit, but the San Marcos community is encouraged to come to the Price Center during hours of operation and see this exhibit featuring San Marcos Art League members.

              This year’s theme for the exhibit touches on the concept of ‘place’ in art; hence the title, A Place for Art. “Wherever artists take up tools to use in creative practice—the brush, the camera, the wheel, the scaffold, the computer- we claim space to create” explains Jennifer Epperson, a local artist and board member of the San Marcos Art League. “That space may be a studio, in nature, or at the kitchen table. Wherever artists work becomes a place for art. As reflectors of our surroundings, artists define the extent to which “place” filters into the creative process. We reflect our surroundings-- the exterior so-called reality, and the interior world of dreams, imagining and inspiration.”

The last day to see this exhibit at the Price Center is July 24th. Come out and see some truly beautiful works during the Price Center’s hours of operation on weekdays from noon to 5pm and Saturdays 11am-4pm.
