The Inverness County Centre for the Arts (ICCA) was busy as the annual Hands Dancing exhibit opened on Sunday afternoon.
Hands Dancing is an exhibit for members of the arts centre. Tom Ryan and Virginia McCoy springboarded the first back in the 1980s at the Inverness Legion. It then moved to the upstairs of the Inverness Post Office until it found its home at ICCA in 2003.
One hundred and four pieces from 52 artists make up the extraordinary show that showcases a variety of mediums, including painting, sculpture, photography, textiles, and more. While many pieces come from year-round residents, a number of them come from as far away as Florida and New York, contributed by our seasonal residents.The exhibition is on display until July 26th. You can visit Inverness County Centre for the Arts at 16080 Highway 19, Inverness. The gallery is open Tuesday to Sunday, 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Admission by donation.
