Our Former Intern Brooke Shows Us Her Ferrets
I love when people tell me they are reading this blog so I thought I'd reward one of them, our former high school intern Brooke, by showing off her ferrets for her. She stopped by a few weeks ago to say hello and introduce us to two of her four ferrets and her boyfriend. Brooke, when you read this, will you tell us their names again?

New Show Opening on May 10
SYRACUSE, New York -- April 27, 2007 -- Delavan Art Gallery is pleased to present the exhibit "Art for the Soul" featuring acrylic paintings by Hope Irvine, photography by Richard Schultz and watercolor paintings by members of the Art and Soul Watercolor Group. The exhibit opens on Thursday, May 10 and continues through Saturday, June 9, 2007.
Over the years, Hope Irvine, Ph.D. has become an accomplished painter as well as an innovative educator and community leader. Delavan Art Gallery is pleased to exhibit Dr. Irvine's sedimentary landscape acrylic paintings. "My paintings result from confrontations with vistas, especially in the American Southwest, Alaska and Iceland," Dr. Irvine explains in her artist statement. Since 1982, Dr. Irvine has held the position of Chair of the Department of Art Education while maintaining dual tenure and full professorships in both the College of Visual & Performing Arts and the School of Education at Syracuse University. Her commitment to the arts and education of others was rewarded by the Manhattan Borough President on June 22, 1982 when he declared the date "Hope Irvine Day."

Richard Schultz's photography ranges in subject from the commonplace to the absurd. Schultz writes in his artist statement, "It's a wild and wacky world that we encounter every day. Photography has been one way for me to express my reactions to the visceral stimuli of daily life." The photographer is Vice President of the David B. Schultz Insurance Agency and a proud native of Syracuse, NY. The majority of the photographs in this exhibit were shot between 2004 and 2007 and are shown exactly as they were when the artist came across the scene.

Gibbons, Bonnie Goetzke, Rita Keller, Loie Mechetti, Geraldine Meday, Joanne Neff, Virginia Raner, Nancy Shampine, Jan Waters and Kathryn Wehrung.
