Village Artisans Gallery, at 100 Corry St. in Yellow Springs, OH, is hosting “ROY G. BIV” – a members’ art show – in their Lobby Gallery, from June 27 – August 15, 2018; with an Artists’ Reception Friday, July 20, 6 – 9 PM.  Both the exhibit and the reception are free and open to the public.

Back in high school science class most of us learned about Roy G. BIV as an an acronym to help us remember the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Little did we know back then that these colors would be so important to us when we became artists. These are the pure colors on the light spectrum – each one having its own in separate wavelength. Artists combine the primaries: red, yellow, blue to get the secondary and tertiary colors. For this show, Village Artisan members decided to create art using only the original colors in the light spectrum, ROY G. BIV, to see what they would inspire.

The Village Artisans Gallery is a multi-media cooperative art gallery located at 100 Corry Street in Yellow Springs. Gallery hours are* Monday – Thursday 11AM – 5 PM; Friday and Saturday 11 AM – 6 PM; and Sunday Noon – 5 PM.
