This historic venue offers participating artists the opportunity to display artwork in an elegant gallery setting. Downtown Louisville offers an array of art galleries, related shops, businesses, restaurants and cafes, and the show dates overlap with various Labor Day events sponsored by the city.

Phoebe Hatch – “Unfinished Business”
Chuck Ceraso
Chuck Ceraso studied painting and sculpting at the University of Notre Dame.
Chuck has been a sought-after instructor at the Denver Art Museum, the Art Students League of Denver and the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities for many years. He also holds ongoing classes in his gallery and studio in Lafayette, CO. His work can be found in public and private collections throughout the U.S. and Europe.
Chuck has been fascinated with painting from the actual experience of sight as opposed to painting from a set of rules or theories as taught by many artists. Using the principles of seeing that he learned from painter Henry Hensche, Chuck continues to discover a fresh vision of the world as simply an arrangement of colored shapes. Science has verified that color vision is a much more complex and fascinating phenomenon than any theory or formula can ever predict.
