Scott Kissell Exhibit

One of my favourite photographers, Scott Kissell, and a member of the Village Artisans will be exhibiting at the
Glen Helen Atrium Gallery
“Sacred Places - Landscape Photographs by Scott Kissell”
September 1 – September 30, 2010

The Glen Helen Atrium Gallery is showing “Sacred Places - Landscape Photographs by Scott Kissell” from September 1 – September 30. The public is invited to meet the artist at the opening reception on Sunday, September 5 from 2 pm to 4 pm.

The Gallery is located in the Glen Helen Building at 405 Corry Street in Yellow Springs. Show hours are 9:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday and 10 am to 4 pm on Saturdays and Sundays. Admission is free. Artwork will be available for purchase.

Many of the landscape photos were taken in the Glen and around Ohio. Kissell calls these landscape photos sacred places because they deserve our care and respect. Through his work he hopes to me remind each one of us of the need to be good stewards and preserve the land for future generations to enjoy.
