Celebration of Nature Art Exhibit and Sale

 Celebrate all of nature’s beauty with Eagle Creek Park this December as they host their annual “Celebration of Nature” Art Exhibit and Sale inside the Earth Discovery Center located within the park, 5901 Delong Road, Indianapolis.

This wonderful multimedia exhibit can be viewed from December 6 – 14 during regular Earth Discovery Center hours (Monday to Saturday, 9 am to 5 pm; Sunday, 1 pm to 5pm).  The show is free with regular park admission ($5 per car).

Guests will enjoy original artwork in a variety of forms.  The “Celebration of Nature” exhibit will feature everything from paintings and photographic prints, to sculptures, woodcarvings and other three-dimensional artwork.  Each piece will depict wildlife, landscapes and nature in its purest form.

Artists featured in the Celebration of Nature exhibit have participated in various art exhibits at Eagle Creek Park during 2008, including Woodcarvers and Woodturners Exhibition, Renditions of Nature and Images of Nature.  Celebration of Nature is a “best of the best” display.

Most of the artwork within the exhibit will be offered for sale with 15 percent of the proceeds will benefit the Eagle Creek Park Foundations “Arts in the Park” program.

The Eagle Creek Park Foundation, established in 1978, is a 2,500-member not-for-profit organization dedicated to the preservation, protection and enhancement of one of the nation’s largest municipal parks.
