SUMMARY:"Seeing Ithaca Through the Eyes of Artists"
DESCRIPTION:Seeing Ithaca\, August 2026 \nThe State of the Art Gallery will be sponsoring “Seeing Ithaca: Through the Eyes of Artists” for the fourth year. It will take place in galleries and artist studios during the month of August\, 2026 and is a celebration of art and artists in the Ithaca area. \nThe State of the Art Gallery members will each show Ithaca inspired work in the gallery and many will have invited guests show with them.  A special feature this year is a wall dedicated to school children who have been part of the gallery’s outreach program.  Students from Belle Sherman\, Beverly J. Martin\, and Ithaca High School will display their art in the gallery. That inclusion is always very popular with parents and friends of the young artists. \nThe Gallery will host several special events during the month.  First Friday Gallery Night is August 7th\, 5-8 P.M. This event usually attracts hundreds of visitors. The monthly “Look Club” will take place on Sunday\, August 16th\, 2-3 P.M. at the gallery and is open to all to join the discussion of how to really look at art. The Ithaca Garden Club will have a special collaboration in the gallery over the weekend of August 21-23 (12-5 each day) to celebrate “Art in Bloom”. This event is an opportunity for garden club designers to create an arrangement that reflects the essence of their chosen piece of art on the walls. This has become a very popular weekend to share the creativity of the floral arrangers. \nOn August 29th from 12 to 5 pm\, many artists\, listed on the website\, will open their working studios to the public\, and visitors can have a deeper look into their art making process. Studios are located throughout Tompkins county. The State of the Art Gallery will be open that afternoon as well\, with several gallery members available for informal art talks.  \nWe have a dedicated website\, seeingithaca.org \, that lists all the galleries involved with this project as well as all the artists with open studios. The other galleries that will be celebrating this event are The Gallery at South Hill (950 Danby Road)\, Danby Gathery Art Works (1774 Danby Road) and the Mink Gallery (614 N. Cayuga Street). \nThe organizers are hoping not only to have great displays of the art\, but also to get artists and art lovers to meet and expand the liveliness and community of all of Ithaca.
