Pieces were made by 32 artists who contributed sketches, oil paintings, ceramics, collages, charcoal pieces and acrylic art.

Some of the art comes from area artists and individuals who participated in The Guild of Artists & Artisans’ Paint Ann Arbor 200 Plein Air event in April.

An open house will show off the art from 4-7 p.m. at the Gutman Gallery. Community members can meet some artists and listen to live music by the jazz duo, Take Note. Wine, desserts and other refreshments from Ann Arbor businesses TeaHaus, Sweet Heather Anne, SolSummit Wine and Zingerman’s will be available.

Open house attendees will also see one of the pieces of art awarded to the City of Ann Arbor.
