Sparrow Art Supply opens new show, ‘Texture’

A WORK BY Olivia Parent

‏The newest exhibit at Sparrow Art Supply is an enticing display of texture. In “Texture,” over 50 local artists indulge in surfaces that are rough, soft, scratchy, silky, furry, glossy, spikey and more. Spanning all mediums, some artists highlight the innate texture of their chosen materials, and others craft the illusion of texture through the manipulation of light, shadow, and pattern. The surfaces represented in this show are so irresistible that you’ll want to touch them.

‏Texture runs from May 26 to July 8. To kick off Vermont Open Studio weekend, Sparrow Art Supply is hosting an opening reception on Friday, May 26, from 5-7 p.m., free and open to the public with complimentary refreshments by Schmetterling Wine Shop and Thistle and Honey Baking.

‏Sparrow Art Supply is an art supply store and gallery at 52 Main Street, right in the heart of Middlebury, next to the waterfall and down the stairs.
