“This exhibit is one of the most interesting and diverse showings that we have featured at the resort,” says Director of Sales & Marketing Shannon Gilbert. “With the combination of paintings and sculpture, combined with all of the colors and textures of each piece, I anticipate the exhibit to be popular not only with our guests, but with art collectors as well,” she added.
