Springs Gallery Hours Changing...

We'll be open tomorrow (Christmas Eve Day) our regular hours: Noon to 7 PM, but closed on Sunday, Christmas Day.

We'll resume our current hours - Noon to 7 PM Wednesday through Sunday - until the new year.

After 1/1/12 we'll just be open Noon to 7 PM Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and for classes. That's the plan for now; I'll let you know here if it changes. Thanks for stopping by!

Klingers in the News

Thank you Yellow Springs News for the nice story you did on our current show: Flora and Fauna, Recent Work of James and Christine Klinger. I put a link to the online version on the right. Hope you can see the show while it's up. Jim will have to take many of his pieces with him to Florida next month, but I'll get to keep some, and mine too, of course. Come visit!

Thanks!

A good time (and good sales) were had by all at tonight's opening at Springs Gallery. Thanks for coming out and supporting the muses. Happy Holidays!!!

We have a "bar code!"

As if modern technology weren't amazing enough - I just learned that there is a way for anyone/anywhere to find anyone (or any business) by scanning our bar codes! I made one for the gallery for a hoot - and posted it on the top right of this site. It's called a QR code, and if you have the button downloaded to your droid phone (or whatever high-tech version you have) - you can scan these QR codes (that we design) to get info. or a link to the site of any participants - businesses or individuals. Whooooaaa!

SILVER ART CLAY CLASS POSTPONED UNTIL 1/14/12

We are cancelling this Saturday's scheduled silver art clay workshop and rescheduling it for Sat., January 14, 2012, Noon to 4 pm. We are hoping more folks will be interested (after the holidays) in learning about this wonderful, versatile material. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope that those of you who have signed up will transfer to the new date/time. In the meantime - if you have any questions or would like to register - just let us know!

I've revised the registration form (below) for your convenience. Hope you can join us!

Thanks!

Christine Klinger, of Yellow Springs, has been painting nature themes and images in oils and acrylics since 2006. Most recently she has been creating expressionistic landscapes and florals.
