The Sherman Artists Association is presenting “Earth, Wind and Fire” at the Live 4 Art Gallery in Pawling New York. The artwork is themed and inspired by the effects humans have had on the urban and rural environment, both good and bad. The artists have depicted both the negative effects such as global warming, waste, increased storms and extreme weather; and also, positive effects such as gardens, reforestation, conservation, wildlife awareness and earth’s beauty. There are paintings, photographs, glass and pottery. There will be an opening reception on November 1, 5 – 7pm. The show will then be up until December 1, 2024.

The Sherman Artists Association is based in Sherman, but also includes artists from New Fairfield, New Milford, Pawling and Patterson. It is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that promotes the visual arts and educates the public by providing a means for artists to share their knowledge, support, and inspiration, thereby enriching the cultural life of the Sherman and neighboring communities. It has monthly meetings the second Wednesday of each month with educational and inspiring speakers. They are also hosting Open Studios on December 7 & 8, 2024 both at artists’ studios and popup locations.
