Silver City, Nevada - There will be a "meet and greet" with New Zealand Artist Sophie Scott, the current visiting artist at the Resident Artist Program in Silver City, on Thursday, October 19th, 2017 from 6pm-8pm at the Silver City School House at 385 High Street.
Program director Quest Lakes says the public is cordially invited to this opportunity to meet Sophie and to try some very New Zealand refreshments such as Marmite and toast.
About Sophie Scott: In addition to being an award winning painter and printmaker with a BFA from the Ilam School of Fine Arts at the University of Canterbury, Sophie is also a shepherd on her family's farm, working to keep track of about 6,000 sheep with the help of her 8 sheep dogs.
Some of her latest artwork, based on historic photographs of the Comstock, can be seen in the 4th Floor Gallery of nearby St. Mary’s Art Center in Virginia City through the end of November 2017.
