Labor & Industry (9/12)

Friday, September 12th, 2008

The Second Annual Labor and Industry Show Opens at the Asterisk Gallery this Friday. The show is supported by Cuyahoga Arts and Culture. Labor & Industry returns for Tremont's Art Walk and will showcase works of local artists based on the themes of Labor & Industry through a variety of mediums, photography, painting, sculpture and film.

For 2008, Ohio Canal Corridor looks to enhance "Labor & Industry" by expanding the offerings in a larger venue in Tremont - the Asterisk Gallery. The idea is to continue to associate the exhibit with Labor Day and use Tremont's current position as a destination Art District for promotion.
