Art Outreach Program at the Eastwood Mall
On FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2007, the Art Outreach Gallery at the Eastwood Mall in Niles, Ohio, will kick off its second installment of exhibitions featuring art created by local and regional professionals as well as work by student artists. In addition to its regular installations, the gallery will also feature a special "show within a show" by internationally recognized pop art painter and comic creator CHRIS YAMBAR.
The special showcase of Yambar's work, entitled SUPER NOVA – THE CHRIS YAMBAR SHOW, will include over 150 canvas images, reverse glass paintings, and original comic art pages. This is an event you have to see to believe! Special thanks to Jacob Bako, curator and Jeff Terlecki, assistant for their creation of this great public art exhibition.
Chris Yambar will appear at the gallery on SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 3, for an OPEN GALLERY RECEPTION from 5:00 to 7:00 PM. The event is free and open to the public.

From 5:00 to 7:00 that evening, he will give a personal walk-through tour and talk about his work that is on display.
