Hudson Group will open an art gallery, titled Gallery Eppley by Hudson, at Eppley Airfield (OMA).
Located in the North Terminal, the 1,000-sqaure-foot gallery will adjoin to a Hudson Booksellers store. It will showcase more than 50 Midwestern artists and thousands of pieces of art. Ten different mediums will be represented, including paintings, bronze sculpting, wood turning, multimedia, metal working, photography and glass blowing. Additionally, artists will perform live demonstrations.
“We looked for artists for nine months and had a jury selection process,” says Christie Erwin, general manager. “We also tried to choose from the up-and-comer to the seasoned artist. There are a lot of up-and-comers that are very talented but may not get a chance at a gallery.”
