Valley Artist Expo
Common Wealth Murals has collaborated with ValleyBike on the Valley Artists Expo, which celebrates the work of Pioneer Valley artists. Twenty local visual artists and their work will be displayed on ValleyBike Kiosks throughout the region this fall. The goal of the project is to show the diversity of artists and artistic work being created in the Pioneer Valley, and is sponsored by E Ink of South Hadley and The Mill District in Amherst. The photographs will be on display through Thanksgiving.
The 20 Pioneer Valley visual artists were photographed with a piece of their work by Amherst portrait photographer, Isabella Dellolio. The artist’s work ranges from glass and metal sculpture, to costume design and quilting, to painting and graphic design. Each resulting image will appear in two kiosks in the ValleyBike network with locations in Springfield, West Springfield, Chicopee, Holyoke, South Hadley, Easthampton, Northampton, and Amherst. Each artist will be displayed with their work in a 2’ x 4’ poster inside the lighted kiosk.
