Art gallery posts open houses

Open house events will be held at the recently completed ASPIE Art Gallery, 1905 Barton Drive, Lancaster, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturdays, Nov. 9 and 16.

ASPIE, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating supplemental income for adult artisans with disabilities. ASPIE helps these artisans generate income through donations for their original artwork using the online ASPIE Gallery, www.aspieartists.com, and now the Lancaster gallery.

The new gallery was built to provide an opportunity for artists with a range of disabilities to showcase their artworks. The gallery was opened on a trial basis last fall to family members and friends, and it will now open to the public for the holiday season.

The gallery includes artworks by Jesse Buckwalter, Jonathan Whitlock, Dorrin Gingerich, JP Henry, Kate Manners, Steven Georges, and Ryan Zinnanti. Featured are paintings, photographic prints, metal sculptures, jewelry, original comic books, crafts, figurines, and more. In addition, the open houses will include a Christmas bazaar featuring items that may serve as holiday gifts.
