BUCKHANNON — The Blaxxmith Shop is proud to present the opening of The Infamous Art Collective’s newest exhibition, “Selling Our Soul for a Decent Price.”

The opening is scheduled for 6 p.m. Saturday, August 27 at the Blaxxmith Shop Gallery, located at 38 E. Main Street in Buckhannon.

The exhibition explores who we are, the base level essence of our being, outward expressions of what lies within. We cling to these convictions in a vain attempt to preserve our integrity. We think we can’t be bought, but what would you take for your thoughts? Your hopes? Your dreams? On August 27, THE iNFAMOUS ART COLLECTIVE is “Selling Our Soul for a Decent Price.”

The iNFAMOUS Art Collective boasts the skill of local artists: Rachal Mercado, Heather Coleman, Danielle Coleman, Stacy McLaughlin, Julie Bettis, Ava Hibbs, Sara Golden, Alice-Gervais, Jennifer Walsh, George Walsh, Holt Thomas, Jon Benjamin, Abigail Benjamin, Max Stewart, Christina Hooker, Ryan Spangenberg, Ryan Zirk, Sailah CreelFox Hill, Eric Bee, Sherri Butler, Alan Stephens, Emily Stephens, MaeKenzie Caroline, Lori Gould, Sonja Snyder, Brittani Kosan, Orryah Wagner, Tehya Kurtz, Christine Keller, Laurie Truehart, Matt Helmick, Kelly Hyatt, Rhea Nicole Finley, Tim Hibbs and The Infamous Band.

We hope that you will join us at 6 p.m. Saturday, August 27, 2022! This event is free, and everyone is welcome! We will have food, live music and fresh art! While donations are not required, they are significant and much appreciated. More info about the event may be found on Facebook here.
