FRANKFORT, Mich. – Hundreds of artworks by local and regional artists will be on display from June 27 through July 26 during the Oliver Art Center’s annual Member Exhibit to be held in the center’s gallery at 132 Coast Guard Rd.

“Our member exhibitions are always remarkable for their breadth of styles and the depth of quality from our local artists,” Executive Director Tamara Hoffbauer said. “Being able to showcase the talent of our own membership, many of whom are local residents, is a highlight of the summer for us”.
