Tuesday at CLAC
A Meet the Artist Reception for
Clear Lake Artist Jaclyn Garlock is
scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 11, from
5:30 – 7 p.m. Garlock’s bold, strong
and larger than life exhibit is on dis-
play in the Hanson Gallery at the
Clear Lake Arts Center through mid-
August. As an added bonus, the Cen-
ter will unveil the latest work from
Steve Johnson, another Clear Lake
artist.
“This reception should be really
fun, because the models for several of
the paintings will most likely be at the
reception. It isn’t very often you get to
see the model in person standing next
to the painting,” commented Paula
Hanus, director of the Clear Lake Arts
Center.
