Common Connections Opening
August 2, 2019 @ 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm
What connects us as people, often connects artists as well. People. Places. Memories. Honoring the
Past. Recreating ourselves in the present. Viewing the future through new eyes. Join some of
Highlands County’s talented artists in this rare juried MoTA show where those connections are
revealed, one painting, one sketch, one photograph and sculpture at a time. The Highlands Art League
artist member exhibit brings to one gallery the talents of current local year’ round artists and
photographers Kayla Chaput, Kevin Collier, Jean Cormier, Ellen Dixon, Norma Evans, Alice Hansen,
Mary Lou Herald, Pam Jessiman, Marty Layne, Donald Lipps, Jr., Cindy Rose, Ingrid Strope, and
Michelle Weidner. They join a friend and fellow artist Selene Spence who is featured posthumously. A
life-long supporter and artist with the Highlands Art League, Spence is well-known for her watercolors
and graphite drawings, just as she is for the kindness shown to others in and outside of the art
community in Highlands County.
Join us for the exhibit opening on Friday, August 2, 4:30—6:30 p.m. in the lower level of MoTA as we
celebrate the work of these talented Central Florida artists. The exhibit will be open August 2—
September 15, Thursdays—Saturdays, 10 a.m.—2 p.m. and 1 1/2 hours before public performances at
the Highlands Little Theatre. Admission is free. For more information call the Highlands Art League at
