The Drawing Room Art Gallery invites the greater public to attend the Opening Reception and meet the artists\, on Saturday\, February 2\, from 6:30-8:3 0 pm.

\n\n Featured ar tists are Darthea Cross (Maynard\, MA)\, Michele Kishita (Philadelphia\, P A)\, Chris Macan (Newtown Square\, PA)\, Jeremy Saladyga (New Fairfield\, CT) and Cameron Schmitz (Brattleboro\, VT).
