October 4th Featured Artist:
Tammy Becker
Tammy Becker is an acrylic painter based in Hilliard, Ohio. Primarily self-taught, she took many art classes when she was younger, which provided a foundation for the skills she continues to develop today. After working with children in a preschool and elementary setting for many years, she has taken the leap to pursue her passion as an artist. Her work is deeply inspired by nature and the sense of peace, balance and joy she gains from being out in the natural world. Inspired by the beauty that can be found in the details, the things we notice when we slow down and look a little closer. Tammy embraces exploration and the possibilities of where creativity can lead. Her hope is to create artwork that brings a sense of joy, peace, and inspires others to pause, look closer, and notice the beauty that surrounds them.
The Daniel B. Vance Gallery
The Daniel B. Vance Gallery honors the life
and legacy of Dan Vance who sadly passed away in 2019. Dan was a passionate advocate and supporter of the arts in the Hilliard community. He utilized his talents as a musician and an actor in many of our programs and served at the Treasurer of the Arts Council for over 40 years. We miss him very much but are pleased to have this space serve as a testament to his memory.
