From an article in the Penn State News Wednesday, Nov. 30, 2016:

NEW KENSINGTON, Pa. — The grand opening and reception for artists of the East Suburban Artists League (ESAL) will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 2, in the Art Gallery at Penn State New Kensington.


The annual multimedia show, on display until Dec. 30, features artwork created by ESAL members. The reception and exhibit are free to the public. More than 80 paintings, drawings, photographs, sculptures, intarsia (wood inlays), quilts and paper crafts are part of the multimedia exhibit, and many are for sale from $50 to $1,200. The campus exhibit is one of two yearly shows by the group.

A nonprofit organization, the group fosters arts and crafts, and provides inspiration and encouragement to art practitioners and patrons in the eastern Pittsburgh suburbs. ESAL boasts 70 artists from the greater Pittsburgh region.

The gallery will be open through the holiday break except for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. Hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Friday, and noon to 5 p.m., Saturday and Sunday.
