The Community Cancer Center will be hosting an opening night reception on January 19th from 5:30 - 7:00 pm. The exhibit will feature work from twenty local artists who are members of the local group, Art Circle. The pieces on display will include paintings, mixed media, and sculpture. Some pieces will be available for purchase. Light refreshments will be served.

The Community Cancer Center, a collaborative venture of Advocate BroMenn Medical Center and OSF St. Joseph Medical Center, recently completed a $10 million expansion, doubling the size of their state-of-the-art facility. As part of their ongoing commitment to being a cornerstone of our community, they will be showcasing local art throughout the year, with new pieces being introduced on a quarterly basis.

Following the opening night showcase, the art will be on display during normal business hours.

The Art Circle is a local creative community gathering in Faith, Hope and Love inspiring Beauty, Truth and Goodness through individual expression and appreciation of the Arts. Anyone is welcome to join their monthly gathering.
