Watertown and the Arts

Posted in Uncategorized by Administrator on the March 7th, 2008

I went down to the Watertown Arts Center this evening to view the faculty art show, and I have to say that if you have a free half hour or so you could do far worse than to spend it looking at the art.

There are some truly energizing pieces by Deb Putnoi that leap off the walls at you. There are delightfully whimsical pieces, with a real sense of humor and joy by Cathy Bennett (my perennial favorite at these shows), plus the evocative mood pieces by Bev Snow, and the astonishing larger pieces by Kaetlyn Wilcox. Make sure that you walk around to the back of the stairways, to the galleries at the wings of the theatre to see these. I didn’t catch on that there was more art lurking there until I’d been there half an hour or so, and when I ventured into those regions I found myself deeply pleased that I had. Profoundly so.

I won’t spoil the fun by spelling out in clumsy words the images that were so very pleasing. Go take a look.
