The twice a year West Chester Gallery Walk is this Friday in downtown West Chester from 4-8pm. If you have never walked the Gallery Walk, this Friday is a great day to try it! First Fridays art shows are always fun and interesting in West Chester and Kennett Square, but "Gallery Walk" is only twice a year so bring a friend and download a map from the Chamber of Commerce and check out the wonderful pop up shows all around West Chester this Friday! http://greaterwestchester.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Gallery-Walk-Booklet-October-2014.pdf
Most every store and bank has a wonderful local artist showing their work, and there are opening receptions as well at The Art Trust in the Meridian Bank. The Art Trust always puts on a great show and has delicious food and drink for their openings!
“Listen" and Monique Kendikian Sarkessian is opening at Z Gallery. "Listen" evokes a relationship between art and sound as is interpreted by artists Dane Tilghman and Christopher Vecchio. I have no idea what this exhibit will actually be, but it sounds cool and ThEveryone loves Monique's sensual encaustics and oils, so visiting Z Gallery should be a treat.
I'm showing a forest of tree paintings and sculptures at the Wells Fargo Building, The beautiful architectural setting makes any artist look like a master, so hopefully my work will do that building justice. Denise Vitollo's pastel works are exhibited at West Chester Starbucks, and Michael Stancato's imaginative paintings are showing at Saint Agnes at 2333 West Gay Street.

“BARK IN THE PARK” OFFERS CANINE-FRIENDLY FAMILY FUN
NOTTINGHAM, PA _ Nottingham County Park will hold “Bark in the Park”, a canine- friendly festival, on Saturday, October 4, 2014 from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. The event promotes responsible dog ownership and brings together a number of local and regional services and recreational opportunities for families with dogs.
“This event is a great way to celebrate dogs and promote the great outdoors, accompanied by a man’s best friend,” said Jay Gregg, Superintendent of Nottingham County Park. “It is just one of the many family activities that we offer at the park throughout the year.”
Food and activity vendors, skill demonstrators, educators and display booths will be on site, along with a new feature - treibball - a sport where the dog must gather and drive large exercise balls into a soccer goal. It has also been referred to as "rolling sheep" in that it resembles sheep herding.
Additional demonstrations and programs include Mason-Dixon Rescue Dog’s search and rescue; Championship Tracking; Chester County SPCA’s micro-chipping (fee associated); Keystone Animal Hospital’s Ask the Vet! station, and Vixen Hall Kennel’s AKC Canine Good Citizenship Testing (fees associated). Also animal well-being sessions on pet disaster preparedness, canine dental health, and fear free veterinary care – counter conditioning your pet to enjoy the trip to the vet.
A selection of crafts and sale items for four-legged friends will be available to purchase, as will face painting and a ranger-led hike through the Park’s backcountry.
Nottingham County Park, which celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2013, offers numerous trails, a beautiful backcountry and Serpentine Barrens that are dedicated as a National Natural Landmark.
Visitors are asked to keep dogs on a six-foot leash at all times, have current rabies vaccinations for their dogs, and properly dispose of all dog waste. Mutt mitt bags will be distributed at the entrance gate, and waste and water stations will be available throughout the event area.
There is a $5 parking fee, but admission to the event is free. Nottingham County Park is located six miles south of Oxford, PA, off U.S. Route 1, just above the Maryland State Line in southwestern Chester County. For more information, visitwww.chesco.org/ccparks or call 610-932-2589.
