The Arts Community of Easton's (ACE) Annual Juried Member Show will be on display Thursday, September 22 - Saturday, November 19 in the main gallery. An Opening Reception is scheduled for Friday, October 7th from 6 PM - 8 PM. ACE creates opportunities which invite community involvement, and presents educational opportunities by organizing exhibitions, classes and workshops, an annual studio tour, and public mural projects. ACE also initiates and participates in area activities which enrich the artistic life of the community, working with the community, and underserved groups identified by local agencies. ACE recognizes that a thriving community of artists is essential to accomplishing these goals, thus fosters artists in education and professional development and provides a venue for communication with peers, schools, arts organizations, and local government.

Coming of Rage includes photo observations from street level at a time when the demands for greater individual freedom broke free of the social constraints of the previous age. The 60's and into the 70's became an era of discontent and divisiveness, civil rights, anti war and racial hatreds all coming together bringing change to America. The photographs are from locations as diverse as London, Fort Jackson, SC, Washington, D.C., Delaware, East Berlin and Philadelphia.Videos
