RANGELEY — The Rangeley Friends of the Arts and the Lakeside Contemporary Art Gallery will be hosting an opening reception for Sonja Johnson – “Amused: The Musings of a Creative Mind” — Saturday, Aug. 3, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. The gallery is located in the lobby of Lakeside Theater, 2493 Main St. The exhibit continues through Sept. 9; the reception and exhibition are free and open to the public.

“I have spent most of my life encouraging artists, young and old, to step out of their comfort zone and trust me to teach them how to express themselves visually. In all those years I have kept sketchbooks filled with ideas and techniques I have shared with my learners for the day when I would have the time to create for myself,” Johnson noted.

Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday through Friday, as well as when the theater is open for events. For more informationabout RFA and its programs and events, visit www.rangeleyarts.org.

New works by Sonja Johnson will be on display at the Lakeside Contemporary Art Gallery in Rangeley August 3 – September 9, with an Opening Reception from 5:30-7:00 PM on Saturday, August 3.
