Akrish art at show celebrating nudes


October 2, 2012 · 10:18 AM

Mercer Island artist Esther Akrish is featured in the 11th annual “Unclad” Art Show, Oct. 12-14, at the Floyd Norgaard Cultural Center in Stanwood, Wash.

The show features over 150 artworks — all nudes — by artists from across the country.

“It’s the unique theme that keeps artists and visitors coming back each year,” said show producer Gayle Picken. “We have artists from as far away as New York, Toronto and North Carolina shipping their artwork to our show.”

Two paintings by Akrish were selected for the show.

The “Floyd” is located at 27130 102nd St. N.W., in Stanwood, about an hour north of Seattle. Show hours are Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 12-14, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission: $5 suggested donation.
