The Visual Artists’ Society presents the “Best of the Season” exhibition beginning on Nov. 14 at the Webber Gallery.

“Best of the Season” will be judged and juried by Janis Brothers, who is a multidisciplinary artist who uses video, installation, sculpture and drawing to explore human experiences. Her inspiration comes from the rural environment and her familiarity with loss and death. Through narratives and haunting aesthetics, her art explores the complexity of these universal themes. The public is invited to the opening reception and awards ceremony on Thursday, Nov. 14, from 5-7 p.m. The gallery opens at 4 p.m. and the exhibit and reception are free.

The “Best of the Season” exhibit has always been a favorite of gallery visitors. The theme of this year’s exhibition is “Artist’s Magical Moments.” Members of the Visual Artists’ Society were invited to create works relating to the theme.

VAS has more than 100 members from all over Marion County and Central Florida including professional and amateur artists, and many of CF’s talented students. VAS exhibits showcase a variety of styles and mediums, including more traditional paintings and photographs, as well as jewelry, sculpture and digital media.

The exhibit will continue through Thursday, Dec. 12. Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Thursday. The gallery is closed Friday through Sunday and college-observed holidays. For additional information, call 352-873-5809.
