Irish Music and the Wild Life

Outdoors and in, there's plenty of art to enjoy in August!

Start with a free outdoor concert of traditional Irish music by Whiskey Before Breakfast, 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, August 3, at Kindleberger Park in Parchment. If it happens to rain, the fun will move to Parchment Middle School, 307 N. Riverview.

On Friday, August 8, from 6 to 9 p.m., enjoy the wild life at the opening reception for artists C. J. McAllister and Stephen J. Lawrence. Their work, in oils and watercolor respectively, takes a close-up look at wild animals. The show continues through October 18 at the Little Yellow Frame Shop and Gallery, 8174 N. 32nd Street in Richland.

Make August 8 a complete Richland Art Hop night by visiting the Blue Water Gallery's reception from 6 to 9 p.m. for their Spirit of the Horse show, featuring guest artists Jeri Hollister and Alec Hall and other artists' horse-inspired work. The show runs through September 10 at 8860 N. 32nd Street in Richland.
