The Car Culture exhibit runs through July at Corridor Gallery in Vancouver, and visitors can meet the authors at a meet-and-greet on Saturday, June 22
Cars are not simply modes of transportation for some people.
For some, cars are a work of art.
Or, they inspire art.
It is called Car Culture, and the Society of Washington Artists is inviting the public to view works of art, take in a car show, and meet artists Saturday in downtown Vancouver.
Corridor Gallery is currently showcasing its Car Culture exhibit through the end of July, but on June 22 the gallery is holding a special meet-and-greet with artists and classic cars.
The art exhibit features cars, trucks, sport, and classics from 1915 through 2018 in oil, acrylic, watercolor, and photography. There will be an artists’ reception from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on June 22, with a car show and a food truck in the parking lot at Corridor Gallery, at 610 Esther Street in Vancouver.
Scheduled to appear include artists Mike Swift, John Mangan, Paul Mackie, Nathun Finkhouse, and Michael Erickson.
If you cannot make it Saturday, the Car Culture exhibit runs through July 31. The art can be viewed at the gallery, which is located in the Esther Short Building, during its normal hours from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
