| The colors of spring will be on full display this weekend during the annual Franklin Gardeners Association May Garden Mart, or May Mart to the locals. The two day vendors market in Franklin’s Fountain Park brings visitors from miles around who want to get a jump start on their yard decorating plans. This year, just down the street, the Victorian City Art & Frame shop is hoping to extend folks outdoor spring decorating thoughts inside with a colorful exhibition of the works of Ann Witherup Rudegeair, a local colorful abstract painter. “Now, more than ever, we need color in our lives,” said Kyla Parkinson, Victorian City Art & Frame owner. “Color that inspires, color that evokes a mood and color that enlivens a town. This year's artist showcase (of Rudegeair’s paintings) aims to bridge visual gaps between traditional and modern Pennsylvania decor.” Rudegeair’s work, which has been featured in the annual Nature Art Showcase in Franklin and in many other regional shows, features her 'wee art' on canvas and blocks, mid-size acrylic panels as well as some larger canvas prints and originals. The artist will be available to answer questions about her work at a reception from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, May 2 at 1273 Liberty Street, a short walk from the park. |   |
