WAYNESBORO — Gallery 50 invites the public to an opening reception for its new exhibit “Faces and Places” on Friday, November 5 from 5:30–8 p.m. at 50 West Main Street in downtown Waynesboro. The reception will showcase the new artwork and includes free refreshments in addition to live music from Drew Adams in the adjacent Music Makers space.
 
Gallery 50 curator, Marti Yeager said, “We are thrilled to have the work of five talented artists gracing our walls beginning in November. We’ll also have plenty of new shelf art, including pottery, stained glass, jewelry, wood carvings, and other fine crafts that will make for perfect holiday gifts.”
 
The featured painters include Pam Wenger, Cindy Baker, Donna Barlup, Claire Carnell, and Warren Tracy Davis. The exhibit spotlights oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. Subjects range from portraits to landscapes to still life.
