CALUMET -- First Friday in Calumet offers a new art exhibit at Galerie Bohème, a workshop at Copper Country Associated Artists and art opportunities at the Calumet Art Center. Please see UPDATE above.
Galerie Bohème
Galerie Bohème will exhibit sculpture by Tom Rudd this month, with a reception from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, April 4.
"The walls in the Bohème are looking like Valentines day in a Chicago garage," Rudd says. "Time to clean away the stains, fill and paint. For April we'll take the art off the walls and put sculpture in the center of the gallery!"
The April exhibit is an abbreviated retrospective of small works from Rudd's not-so-small series produced over the past 40 years.

"It will be intriguing to be able to view sculpture in the round, in this small space indoors, so stop by check out the sculpture, have good bread, fine cheese, questionable drinks and stimulating conversation," he adds.
The walls will be made pristine for the upcoming summer shows beginning in May with an exhibit of outstanding artworks from Dolores Slowinski and Bonnie Peterson.
