A reception to meet the artists whose work is shown in “Pencil, Paper, Paint” will be held Sunday, April 22, from 1 to 3 p.m. at North River Civic Center, 1009 Executive Drive, Suite 102.

About 70 pieces of art are in the exhibit, all created by students who take classes at the center or professionals who come to the center to paint, according to Linda Rugina, executive director. Senior adults who come to North River Civic Center to learn to paint or draw have a choice of three classes: beginning drawing, watercolor and portrait drawing.

Students learn to evaluate their work, use of color, shapes, lines, textures, values, sizes, directions and how to improve their work.

“Pencil, Paper, Paint” will remain on view through June.
