well as portraiture and still-life paintings .
From now through the end of November , it is another one of SVAC ’ s typical whirlwind seasons , so don ’ t miss a day of it . There are 12 spellbinding shows presenting student and teacher art , juried fine art , select solo shows , art glass , nationally recognized photography and film , sculpture , and , surprisingly new this year , “ street art ” in the form of graffiti . All that and more is packed into six short months , and beautifully curated throughout SVAC ’ s exhibition halls . •
