Gallery Shows Off Big-Name Art
Weems Gallery and Framing has been around for 45 years and keeps changing with the times. Owner Sheila McVeigh says she has two main goals for the gallery: To keep prices within a wide and affordable range and to give back to the local community. One of the ways she plans to achieve both of these goals is through the gallery’s August resale art show and reception with over 250 works by well-known, local artists from their private collections. It’s an opportunity for novice collectors to shop locally and hopefully get a bargain or even just to relax after work with a little glass of wine and see some artwork that they may never otherwise see.
