MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – Community members are urged to come out and enjoy the annual showing of EcoArts: Lake County Sculpture Walk before it closes Oct. 13.

The exhibit can be seen at the Middletown Trailside Nature Preserve, 21435 Dry Creek Cutoff, located about 1.5 miles from downtown Middletown. The exhibit is free and open daily, dawn to dusk.

The work of this year's eco artists also can be seen at the Life Gallery in Middletown, 21037 Calistoga Road. The gallery is open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Both exhibits close Oct. 13.

“It has been inspirational to see the high quality fine art work created by a local group of dedicated conscious minded artists in the current exhibit” said Aimee Reed, co-chair of the Life Gallery. “Since first opening in spring of this year, we’ve been pleased to see great turnouts to the gallery’s art openings, live performances and workshops.”

EcoArts: Lake County Sculpture Walk features art work “in dialogue with nature,” with an eco-conscious message.

Visitors will find a variety of concepts and themes expressed in natural or repurposed materials in the artwork at both locations.
