WATER VALLEY – The Bozarts Alliance, a group of 11 area artists, will host their first show beginning Friday, Jan. 29, at Bozarts Gallery downtown.

The Friday evening reception will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. and is open to the public, according to Annette Trefzer, owner of Bozarts and coordinator of the exhibit.

Three Water Valley artists are represented in the show; Pati D’Amico, William Warren, and Annissa Wilkinson. Featured work will include painting, pottery, mixed media, sculpture, and jewelry.  The show will be on view through Feb. 28.

“It is a wonderfully diverse showcase of different artists’ new work and a ‘coming out,’ so to speak, for many of these talented artists,” Trefzer said.  

The Bozarts Alliance is planning eight different exhibitions this year, she added. And, Bozarts will feature work by the alliance members on a permanent basis in the gallery.

“This means that art lovers will always find pieces by the alliance artists in the gallery, in addition to the changing venues, projects, and installations that we have lined up for this year,” said Trefzer.

“There are many talented artists in our town and in the region, and we’d like to provide a venue to showcase their talent.”
