Adam Whitney’s new art exhibition focusing on the themes of acceptance and healing is open at The Brewery Arts Center’s Artisan Gallery. Whitney has been in the Northern Nevada area for more than 30 years. A renaissance artist, he has played Broadway and toured the country in numerous professional shows such as Hairspray, Cabaret, Dragon Tales Live in association with Jim Henson’s Costumes and Creatures. He has done voice over work for cartoons, commercials and radio spots. Whitney came into the visual arts later in life and found a passion he never knew existed. Due to time constraints, painting had to take a back seat. However, after suffering the loss of his parents in November, Whitney picked up a paint brush for therapy, which sparked his love of painting. Also featured as part of the exhibit is a screen featuring Whitney’s talk from the 2019 addition of TEDxCarsonCity, presented and filmed at the Brewery Arts Center’s Maizie Theater. The artist reception is Sunday, June 5 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Whitney will be available to discuss his work. This reception is free and open to the public. The gallery is now open Tuesday through Sunday noon to 4 p.m. and Thursday, noon to 6 p.m. where you can also purchase the famous Moondance Chocolates and beautiful hand crafted art by local artists. The show runs through July 10. For information, contact gina@breweryarts.org.
