The Dublin Community Center is 10 years old this year, and supporting and showcasing local artists has been part of the foundation of its mission. 

To kick off fall festivities, the public is invited to a 10-year retrospective art show and public reception Friday, Sept. 13, from 5 to 7 p.m. to celebrate both the artists and the center. The exhibit for September will be a retrospective of the works of many of the artists who have displayed art on the center's walls over the last decade. 

The earliest art shows at the Dublin Community Center were curated by Edie Clark. For decades, she was a contributor to Yankee magazine, and she sang in the Dublin Community Church choir. Clark was also an art collector who focused on the artists of the Dublin Art Colony from the turn of the last century, so she reached out to contemporary artists working in their tradition. Clark died in July, and will be honored at the reception.

This show may be viewed throughout September, during open hours or by appointment. For information, send email to  info@dublincommunitycenter.org.
