The Grayson Gallery & Art Center will present their Final Friday show, “All Art August,” featuring up to 25 artists from across the tri-state. A variety of the artists’ works, featuring different subjects and highlighting different mediums, will be on display over the next month. An opening reception, free to area artists and the public, will take place during the monthly Final Friday Art Walk, this Friday, August 25, from 6 – 9 p.m. Cash prizes will be awarded for the People’s Choice, chosen by popular vote, as well as the GGAC Board Choice and the Brandon Click Memorial Award – chosen by the Click family. Each includes a $50 cash award along with a blue ribbon. Visitors will be able to vote for their favorite painting in the People’s Choice category up until just before the prizes are awarded, around 7:30 p.m. Entertainment will be provided by the band Blue Sky, and catering by Sheila Maries. Cold water and other refreshments will be available throughout the evening and visitors are encouraged to dress for the expected hot weather in Friday’s forecast. For August, Blue Sky Telecom of Grayson will be the corporate sponsor. Director Dan Click extended a personal invitation to the gallery event to all local businesses and residents, especially those who have never been to the Grayson Gallery. “It’s time to see what Grayson’s community art space is all about!” Click said.
