SPIFFING FOR SUMMER


Rocky Neck Gallery was spiffed up this past Wednesday.  The door opened for spring cleaning before the new summer season approaches.   Many of the artist members arrived at noon to scrap, caulk, sand, paint, wire, wash and other general duties for sprucing the space under the fine direction of Kate Somers, chair of the hanging committee.









At the end of the day the gallery just sparkles with a new coat of paint, bright lights, clear windows, new display counters and is now ready for an exciting new art filled season.
