SUMMARY:2024 Family Showcase Artists' Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the JRM Artists’ Space for the Artists’ Reception of the Family Showcase 2024. \n\nThere is a lot of creativity in this show shared with us by children and Grandparents and everyone in between. It’s a lot of fun to see the creative connections inside of the family unit. This show was especially challenging to put together. With a wide variety of industrial to fine art sculpture there was a lot of trial and error in building the sets out of what I had on hand. Hope you’ll let me know if you like it or not. \nThis show will be on display in the Artists’ Space until April 20.

SUMMARY:Lost Regional Sodas Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Whether called soda\, pop\, tonic\, or even coke\, for most of the 18th and 19th centuries\, towns\, cities and regions had their own popular local soft drinks. Most were created by and sold through small bottling houses based on local flavors and regional character. \n\n\n\n\nDuring the 1950s-1970s\, most of these bottlers were purchased by larger companies like Pepsi and either closed or shifted to make that company’s beverages. When the regional drinks did not find popularity with a larger audience\, they were discontinued. \n\n\n\nWhile some regional sodas like Moxie\, Cheerwine\, and Ale 8-one are still available\, most were gone before the end of the 1980s. We celebrate many of these lost sodas in this exhibit.
