J.P. Henry and Jane Ward’s exhibition, “Visual Embrace” will hang in the gallery through the month of July. A show with over two hundred photographs, it sure is a must see! All photographs J.P. and Jane took were from cellphones. There are pictures from their home on the farm to travels abroad. Also hanging in the back of the gallery is the open show, “Listen to Color”. Come by, look, enjoy, and buy! You can stop by during regular business hours, or by appointment.
