Students in the Kids Art Camps taught by Michael and Jade Corle will display their drawings, sculpture, puppetry and other media August 8-20. The Corles have a great deal of experience with children and art, having spent ten years working with the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh and developing and teaching outreach programs for after school and summer programs. The public is invited to an artists’ reception sponsored by Kay Reynolds 1-3 p.m. Sunday, August 8. Art by autistic students in the NHS School in Altoona will be on display August 21-28.

The public is invited to a free reception 1-3 p.m. Sunday, August 22. FLORA AND FAUNA EXHIBITThe
Bedford County Arts Center will display images of flora and fauna found
in gardens and backyards—narcissistic narcissi, perhaps, or funloving
freesia; cuddly creatures or voracious varmints. Maybe even a rock.
Horticultural artists will showcase their own creativity in a live flower show during the opening reception. The multimedia exhibit is on display June 30-July 30. The public is invited to meet the artists—both the framed and the potted—at a reception 1-3 p.m. Sunday, July 11. The Bedford County Arts Center is in Anderson House, 137 E.
