Islanders gathered at the Mercer Island Community and Event Center to celebrate the center’s 10th anniversary and the opening of the annual holiday art show on Nov. 5.

The show is hosted by the Mercer Island Visual Arts League (MIVAL) and features more than 200 pieces by local artists, including holiday wreaths.

The show’s juror, Susan Walker, awarded eight pieces at the opening reception that she said were “eye catching and soul catching.”
