A gallery reception for artists in the current exhibit at Elzay Gallery, ONU, takes place at 4 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 28. The show features works by The All Weather Gang, painters of western New York.

William Mancuso of the ONU art faculty describe the artists this way:

"The All Weather Gang is a group of diverse individuals – think aerospace
engineer and English teacher to graphic designer and owner of a construction company – from Western New York State who have met almost every Saturday for decades to go outdoors and paint in weather that at times would give even the U.S. Postal Service reason to reconsider.

"They gather to paint the world around them and by doing so to draw attention
to the scenes that every one looks at, but no one sees. This exhibition brings
together paintings from summer, fall, winter and spring that are painted plein air
(outdoors) and on site."

This is the first time The All Weather Gang has exhibited in Ohio.

The show will be in the Elzay Gallery in the Wilson Fine Art Building now thorugh Oct. 5. The gallery is open daily 1 to 4:30 p.m.
