Back to school. Here's what going on in art this week.

I've taken a bit of a break from posting over the summer, but school's back and there's lots going on. — EGF.

Clay and Cloth

Ceramist Sara Baker and fabric artist Denise Richards are the featured artists at Artspace, 221 Center Street, Bloomsburg, through Sept. 29.  

Catch it while you can

Current exhibiting artist at BU's Haas Gallery Lisa Corine Von Koch and her show 'DAD' will be having a closing reception Tuesday, Aug. 27, from 11 am to 2 pm. She will give a lecture at 11:15 and 1:15 pm.

A hike in the evening

Bloomsburg University’s Quest Program will offer a night hike from 9 a.m. to midnight, Wednesday, Aug. 28, meeting at the Quest office on BU’s Upper Campus. Quest events are open to members of the campus community and the public. For information, see www.buquest.org.

Maybe this is your ball of yarn

If you are an adult who knits, or who would like to learn how, the Bloomin’ Knitters want you. They meet every Monday at the Bloomsburg Public Library on Market Street in the Fireplace Lounge at 6 pm. Bring your latest project and come prepared for chat.

And looking farther ahead ...

The Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble will stage Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice in October. I'm really curious to see what they do with this.
