The opening reception for the Keizer Art Association’s 33rd annual Colored Pencil Exhibition is set for 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday, April 5.
The show, which features colored pencil works from local and Northwest artists, runs through April 30 in the association’s gallery, 980 Chemawa Road N.E.
Gallery visitors last year commented on the stunning array of works, some looking as much like a photograph as a drawing. Visitors can vote on their favorites for the People’s Choice Award.
