All are invited to celebrate a new approach to connecting artists and audiences at a reception on Fourth Thursday, Sept. 26, from 5-8 p.m.

at WallSpace-LNK Fine Art Gallery, 1624 S 17th St. Now operated by a new nonprofit organization, WallSpace-LNK for Artists and Audiences, the gallery has expanded opportunities for serious artists to produce their own focused exhibitions and provide people of all ages and inclinations an opportunity to see work and interact with artists they otherwise might not encounter. The celebration will feature artist Craig Roper’s “The Good The Bad The Ugly,” 20 years of unconventional explorations.



“Lincoln is very fortunate to have a new art exhibition showcase that gives voice to the many talented artists in our region,” Roper said. His exhibit contains "lots of good work, some bad and plenty of ugly. We’ll leave it up to you to decide which is which.
