Spectrum Gallery is a unique
cooperative gallery where the artist is encouraged and celebrated in
their individual expression through the media of their choice. In the
spirit of original artists such as Robert Henri and Mary Cassatt, we
champion the pursuit of personal excellence by not relying on juries,
awards or contests to know the true value of art. The artists choose
their own work for public display, set up exhibit schedules and work
together to create a dynamic, friendly environment for the arts where
everyone is welcome.
Spectrum Gallery also helps artists by offering
o Artistic support, feedback and help with hanging shows.
o A low yearly fee and payment plans.
o Free use of the Matting and Framing Studio and materials.
o Free use of the Spectrum Art Library.
o 30% off of classes and workshops.
o The opportunity to exhibit their work through the website,
Located in the east building of the
DeKoven
Center, in Racine, WI, the gallery inspires everyone with its artistic
diversity and the spectacular views of Lake Michigan as well as the
DeKoven’s historic buildings and grounds.
Visit this great place open on Saturdays and Sundays from 12:00 – 5;00
PM and by serendipity and by appointment, (262) 634-4345.

Spectrum Gallery will host Antony Adolf - author of Peace: A
World History
Mr.
Adolf will read excerpts from his new book and be available to sign
copies.
How peace has been made and maintained, experienced and
imagined is not only a matter of historical interest, but also of
pressing concern. Peace: A World History is the first study to explore
the full spectrum of peace and peacemaking from prehistoric to
contemporary times in a single volume aimed at improving their
prospects.
Spectrum Gallery is dedicated to helping artists. The cooperative
artist-run gallery is a non-juried and non-judgmental organization and
celebrates the creative expression of all artists. For more information
