If you have not yet seen the Grandfather Clock at Mena Art Gallery, be sure to take the time to go by. It was donated to the gallery by a member as a fund-raiser to help make it possible to bring you the ever-changing display of art work that you have come to expect. It is being disposed of through a raffle. The donor has specified that we are to receive at least $750 for the clock, which is valued at over $1,000, so ticket sales will continue until we reach that magic number: $750. You still have a chance to win!
Tickets for the raffle are $1 each, 7 for $5, or 10 for $7.50. Gallery hours are noon to 3 pm, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, or 1 to 4 pm on Sundays. Location is 607 Mena Street, just across from the Ouachita Little Theater.
And while you are there, plan to see the All Pottery Show; it displays some great work by local potters. Pieces range from the practical like mugs and bowls to the purely decorative, but all are beautiful. I am constantly amazed at the talent our local artists display.
