Stray Dog Antiques will present several new framed lithographs from the Erie Lithograph Company (1890’s-1960’s) in it’s new second floor gallery space. New prints originally commissioned for Hershey’s and Amoco companies from the 40’s and 50’s are featured. In addition to the prints, new furniture, jewelry and other unique collectibles are on the floor.

Stray Dog Antiques also will create an environment on the second floor gallery filled with signs. Signs tell a story. They are a reflection of our culture, whether created by hand on rustic and primitive materials or manufactured digitally. Much can be revealed in the simplicity of a sign about history, culture, and art. They are used to direct attention, boost commerce or simply for their visual impact. Striking in text and color, signs offer a heartwarming appeal to any setting and are ideal decorations.

And at Gallery Eleven, Sonja Adkins is the featured artist for August. The gallery is hosting a reception for Adkins during ArtWalk. The title of her exhibit is “Clendenin, WV in Watercolors.”
