Studio B, 39 E. Philadelph­ia Ave. in Boyertown will celebrate its tenth-year anniversar­y with its eleventh annual December Members and Friends exhibit entitled “GLOW” opening Friday, Dec. 7, from 3 to 9 p.m. in conjunctio­n with the 16th annual Boyertown Holiday Open House Tour. The show continues through January 13, 2019. The exhibition and opening reception are free and open to the public. Please visit http://www.studiobbb.org for more informatio­n.

The gallery’s artist members and new friends have been invited to feature their best work. Various media, from oil, pencil, and watercolor to clay, glass and fiber will be represente­d. This annual exhibit showcases dozens of local artists and offers an array of styles.

“It is our mission at Studio B to promote the artists,” said Studio B director Susan Biebuyck. “This exhibit is another opportunit­y for the many talented people who have graced our walls to exhibit and for us to celebrate their artistic accomplish­ments. We want to ease our community into the darker months by showcasing the illuminati­on of talent by our artist members and friends.”

“Even in tough economic times, art is an investment gift. It brings joy and hope to both the giver and the receiver,” Biebuyck noted. “This is a special annual exhibit for us. We opened our doors for the first time with this exhibit in 2008. As part of the Holiday House Tour we were introduced to hundreds of visitors to Studio B that evening and look forward to hundreds every year during this annual community celebratio­n!”

Studio B, located in the heart of historic Boyertown, is the home of the Arts and Activities Alliance, a committee of Building a Better Boyertown, a nonprofit Main Street program dedicated to revitalizi­ng small towns.
