"Currently "Exploring Assemblage with Found Objects". Many hours are spent
scavenging scrap yards and flea market-type vents collecting mostly metal pieces that can be reused, re-cycled into one-of-a-kind garden art. My studio is filled with a wealth of
unusual pieces that when welded together gives the discarded pieces a whole new purpose.
I have always had an interest in creating art. A pencil and paper was my vice as a child.
I love bright colors in my art although I only wear dull colors! Go figure.

FYI - all of my pieces are available at the Toledo Artists' Club."            Bren Clixby

2024 Show Details

The purpose of this show is to provide visual artists the opportunity to compete and exhibit in our community; to allow the public to appreciate this artistic talent; and to further our community’s cultural development by the permanent display of selected artwork at the Bedford Branch Library.

The Bedford Arts for Our Future Show will be held on Sunday, November 3, 2024 at the Bedford Branch Library, 8575 Jackman Road, Temperance, MI. Artists may enter a total of three (3) works. At least one piece must be available for purchase. Paintings, drawings and photographs are limited in size to 36” width including frame because of limited space and must be ready to hang with wire.
