Gallery Hop 2008 ! !

Umbra Essence Candles and Gifts is thrilled to be a part of the annual Gallery Hop put on by the Association For Visual Arts and the Chattanooga Downtown Partnership. http://www.avarts.org

The event takes place on Saturday, September 13 from 2pm until 9pm. And as the event poster says: "You Won't Believe Your Eyes." There are so many galleries and artist's studios on the Hop this year. And that means so many opportunities to discover the most fabulous, intriguing and sometimes offbeat artwork for sale in Chattanooga.

Umbra Essence will be hosting Chattanooga artist/painter Shaun LaRose on our garden terrace during the Gallery Hop. Everyone is invited to our gift gallery to meet Shaun and see some of his newest work while enjoying complimentary wine and cheese during the artist reception.

Stop in Umbra or AVA to pick up a Gallery Hop brochure map and listing of all the participating galleries. In addition to galleries, many individual artists will open their studios to the public. This will allow visitors to not only meet local artists face-to-face in their workspaces, but also learn about the materials, inspirations and methodologies that influence their work.

The event is free and open to the public.

For more info please visit the AVA website or call 265-4282.
