March 6-April 3, 2010
Where: Artworks Crêperie Gift Shop & Café
2 Main Street
Waddington NY 13694
315-388-4000

Waddington, NY: Artworks presents artist Sara E. Lynch in Nostalgic. This
show will highlight Sara’s recent work on painted clothing while exhibiting
some of her earlier pieces. Sara, a self-proclaimed hoarder, collects
photographs, clothing, and other miscellany discarded by society and uses
these items in her work. Although fueled by a strong connection to the
past, her pieces are rooted in the present and document her experiences of
living in the moment.

Effective March 5th the Creperie Cafe will be open Friday and Saturday
nights from 6:00 to 9:00, serving desserts and a variety of specialty
coffees. I am attaching our evening menu as well.
