Auburn City Hall Gallery

The City Hall Gallery displays rotating shows throughout the year featuring two-dimensional works by emerging and established artists from all around the Puget Sound region. The works featured each year are selected to highlight an array of artists and artworks that demonstrate vitality, technique and diversity in medium and subject. The 2008 gallery season offers a look at the diverse work created by 24 outstanding artists who live and work in the region. This year, the gallery offers artworks in various mediums such as collage, watercolor, acrylic, oil, mixed media, pastel, Chinese ink painting, digital artwork and photography.

Special Exhibit: Greg Boudreau

Auburn Golf Course Clubhouse

This year Seattle artist Greg Boudreau will create a series of work based on images of the people and places of Auburn. Utilizing an approach to art that explores the distinction between printmaking, painting, industrial fabrication and fine art, Boudreau combines acrylic paint, spray paint stencils, screen printing, industrial building materials, and salvaged materials to create a profile of Auburn. These large-scale works will fill the walls of the new Auburn Golf Course Clubhouse. On Friday, June 20th at 7 p.m. the public is invited to a Special Event Opening Reception to listen to music, enjoy refreshments, view the artwork and meet the artist.
