January Artist Reception for Ellen Lloyd

Join us this Friday, January 8th from 4-7 pm for an artist reception for photographer Ellen Lloyd. ArtSpot is located inside Flicks in downtown Glasgow. Light refreshments will be provided.

Ellen received her first camera for a graduation present, but remembers always taking pictures with her mom’s camera when she was young. “I would take tons of pictures at family events and rarely forgot to bring the camera to other events. Along with taking pictures, I loved looking at old photos and hearing the stories that came along with them”. Now Ellen has her own photography business taking portraits, some of which can be seen at ArtSpot.

Upcoming shows at ArtSpot include the work of Leith DeWeese (February), the Valley County Youth Show (March), Jerry Jacobson (April), and Yancy Stewart (May).

To show your work at ArtSpot or for any questions please contact Laura at 526-7262 or email artspotgallery@gmail.com. You can also visit our blog at http://www.artspotgallery.blogspot.com/.
