At the Gallery at Lower Bucks, located at the Epstein Campus in Bristol Township, “Ebb and Flow” features art that depicts the natural rhythm of life as experienced through highs and lows, ups and downs, fluctuations, and fluidity. The show runs from September 15 to December 11. The opening reception takes place from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, September 19, at the campus at 1304 Veterans Highway, Bristol.
Meanwhile, art lovers are invited to the “Show of Shows” at the Fickes Gallery from September 22 to October 31 at the Upper Bucks Campus. The opening reception takes place from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, September 26. The Fickes Gallery is located in the lower level of the North Building on the campus at One Hillendale Drive, Perkasie.
The Fickes Gallery is accepting submissions from the artistic community to be considered for the “Show of Shows” through September 17. Each artist may submit up to three pieces of original art for sale with a $20 fee to enter. The artist prospectus can be found on the Fickes Gallery page.
