Bill Barrow is the Leeds Arts Council’s featured artist in August. The public is invited to the opening reception on July 31, 2016, 1:30 – 3:30 pm, to view his delightful artwork. Admission is free.

Bill Barrow was born with a God given talent which he has considered a hobby his entire life. He enjoys drawing architectural features, still life, and people – especially his grandchildren. He has volunteered to teach art classes throughout his career, mainly at local churches.

Bill’s medium of choice has always been pencil, which allows him to use shadowing to create depth and texture with precise measure. He loves being able to use his talent to bring pleasure to his friends and family.

Mr. Barrow’s work will be on exhibit through August 26, 2016.

The Arts Center is located at 8140 Parkway Drive, in downtown Leeds. The gallery is open Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. and during events. In case of inclement weather, call the center at 205-699-1892 to confirm opening hours.
