Opening Art Reception: Olga Mendenhall (presented by CDCP x WCDC)
July 6 @ 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Free
We’re absolutely thrilled to kick off the newest season of Art All Over with our first artist, Olga Mendenhall.
Internationally acclaimed creative expert and painter Olga Mendenhall brings years of artistic brilliance to the realms of art and design. Originally from St. Petersburg, Russia, Olga ventured to the USA in 2011, eventually making Pittsburgh her artistic haven. Olga resided in Wilkinsburg for over 6 years when she first moved to Pittsburgh 10 years ago. Remarking on her time in the borough, Olga said, “[Wilkinsburg] left unforgettable memories and made me feel like home for the first time since I moved to USA from Russia.”
Join us for the opening reception to have an opportunity to meet Olga in person and hear more about this exhibition. This is a great time to bring a friend, or even the whole family, and enjoy an evening of art.
About the Art All Over series: Casey Droege Cultural Productions partnered with the Wilkinsburg Community Development Corportation (WCDC) for a series of exhibitions at the WCDC’s Lohr Gallery. These exhibitions are organized in collaboration with WCDC for their Art All Over program. Selected artists, with a connection to the borough of Wilkinsburgh, hold solo shows of their current work. In addition to the exhibits, each artist is able to host an artist talk, workshop, or reception to invite the public to engage more. The exhibits are always free and open to the public.
