Kellogg Environmental Center Hosts Art Show Opening
Connecticut’s Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) will host an art show opening for a display of artwork from Blue Rock Studio, Oxford, on Tuesday, June 20 from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. at the Kellogg Environmental Center, Derby. The public is invited to attend the Opening and meet the artists. The exhibit is free and will be open to the public through July 23.
Blue Rock Studio’s team is JoAnna Elizabeth Lucas and Chris DellaRocco. JoAnna is an award winning fine artist, a wildlife and landscape painter, and a hiking enthusiast. Chris is a photographer, personal trainer, and an endurance athlete. Both JoAnna and Chris are avid birdwatchers, and this shines through as the focal point in their art displayed at the Kellogg Environmental Center.
Blue Rock Studio showcases fine art specializing in birds, wildlife, and nature. The studio rests on 8 acres of land with natural gardens, birdhouses, nature trails, and a stream and pond, which is an ideal location for artists and photographers to encounter wildlife to inspire their creations. This exhibit features a mixture of fine arts, wildlife photography, and shadowboxes that connect you to the natural world. The paintings and photographs on display are rich with vibrant colors and the wildlife subjects seem to come alive.
Kellogg Environmental Center, located at 500 Hawthorne Avenue, Derby, Connecticut, is open Tuesday through Saturday from 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. There is no charge.
