Caboose, The Exhibition

You may have heard of Caboose, the comic.

 But have you heard of Caboose, the exhibition?

Please join us in celebrating Caboose: An Exhibition of Comics About White River Junction.  This exhibition features original artwork from the comics newspaper Caboose, edited by Chuck Forsman and Max de Radigiuès.

Stop by CCS from 5-8pm tonight for our First Friday reception.  Come see how these comics were created and meet the artists who created them.  There will be snacks, music, conversation, comics and plenty of free copies of Caboose to take home.

Photographs by Andrea Greitzer and Rob Strong
July 2-30
Opening reception July 2nd from 5-8 pm, gallery talk by the artists at 7 pm

Both Greitzer and Strong will be exhibiting photographs of architectural elements and locations, both interiors and exteriors, from their unique perspectives. Andrea Greitzer is interested in the areas of museums that surround art, the beautiful spaces we often ignore on our way to look at something else. Her work captures the light, mood and color of museum spaces around the world. Rob Strong’s photographs of parking lots, industrial facades and metal fabricated structures along America’s highways examine the way man and nature have collaborated, sometimes unwittingly.
