    Gordy Fine Art & Framing Co. 
    224 E. Main
    Gordy Fine Art & Framing Company to present an exhibition of Kevin Campbell’s Puzzle Project, 5-8pm. 

    Gordy Fine Art & Framing Company will open Kevin Campbell: The Puzzle Project, Thursday March, 5 – 8 pm, featuring groupings of puzzle pieces that the artist cuts from plywood and paints individually.  Each grouping has a place in a much larger puzzle that could be assembled if all the pieces were brought together.  The Puzzle Project is a work of art with no edges, so it can be added to and grow indefinitely.  The exhibit will be anchored by a composite image of what the entire puzzle would look like if fully assembled.  Throughout the evening, Campbell will be on hand to engage with viewers and answer questions. Light refreshments will be served, and the public is invited to attend. 

    At 6:15 Campbell will speak about the project and how it has evolved since he began in 1994.

    All the puzzle groupings express the interconnectedness of the natural world.  Each individual piece is “inherently part of something larger than itself,” says Campbell, speaking about the idea that has driven his art for decades.  “As it grows, pieces and groups of pieces are separated and treated as individual works of art.”  These groups will be hung and for sale in the Gordy gallery.  Those who own a piece of the Puzzle Project will forever have a place in the larger composition. 

    “Works of art are often referred to as ‘pieces of art,’” says Gordy owner Carl Schafer.  “For Kevin Campbell, this is literally true.  He is making only one work of art that has many pieces. Campbell has placed no boundaries on his single work of art.  It can continue forever and each piece will always have its place.” 

    The exhibit will be on view with works for sale in the gallery through March 28, 2026.

    Muncie Artists Guild
    Various locations
    Mazelle Rollins is the Muncie Artists Guild’s Artist of the Month for March 2026.

    Artist Statement – Mazelle Rollins
    My work begins with a simple question: what remains when everything else falls away?

    Through oil, watercolor, and mixed media, I build layered textures and organic forms that reflect memory, resilience, and lived experience. 

    Long before I fully believed in myself, others-including my mother- named me an artist, and that faith still moves through my work. After graduating from Ball State University and spending more than seventeen years in graphic design, I bring both practiced skill and intuitive listening to each piece. I invite viewers to slow down, look closer, and discover what their own heart recognizes.

    Mazelle's work will be on display at the following locations: Rosebud Coffee House, The Patterson Building, Old National Bank, Haul N’ Oats

    Downtown Muncie's most-anticipated spring evening returns on Thursday, June 4, 2026 — the Brink of Summer ArtsWalk + Flower Hour.

    Presented by the Community Foundation of Muncie & Delaware County, the Brink of Summer ArtsWalk + Flower Hour runs from 5–8 p.m.

    A special edition of the monthly First Thursday series, Brink of Summer ArtsWalk is a community-wide celebration of the arts, local makers, and the vibrant culture of Downtown Muncie. This year's event features an expanded lineup of programming for attendees of all ages.

    Flower Hour, presented by Wise Country Market with flowers provided by Normandy Flower Shop, invites participants to explore Downtown Muncie and collect blooms from 10 different locations to build their own one-of-a-kind bouquet.

    You can purchase Flower Hour tickets in advance online or day-of at the event. Physical, printed tickets allow you to start your Flower Hour journey, and they can be picked up, if you purchased them online, or purchased in-person at the DWNTWN tent at the corner of Walnut and Charles Street.

    Another highlight of this year's event is the Steamroller Printmaking Experience, produced by Tribune Showprint with a roller provided by MacAllister Rentals. Local and regional printmakers will create oversized prints using a steamroller as a press, and community members are invited to participate using pre-made blocks.

    Additional programming throughout the evening includes:
    -YART — a yard sale for art — where a wide variety of local makers and artisans offer original works priced under $40, located at the 400 block of Walnut St. and Canan Commons.
    -Art exhibits and galleries throughout Downtown will feature local and visiting artists working in a variety of media.
    -Round 1 of DWNTWN IDOL will also take place, giving performers the opportunity to advance to the finals at the fall ArtsWalk in October. 20 Contestants will compete for 10 of the finalist spots on the Canan Commons Stage from 5:30-7:30pm. Auditions for Round 2 begin June 5th. The winner of the final round will receive: $500 cash, a trophy, additional community performance opportunities, a one-hour photoshoot from Kishel Photography, professional skin prep, airbrush make up with lashes, and hair style for the photo shoot by Kara Leigh Robinson, an overnight stay at the Courtyard by Marriott,  and bragging rights as Muncie’s top performer!
    -Live music and dance performances, food trucks, and local dining round out the evening.

    "Brink of Summer ArtsWalk is one of our favorite nights of the year — it's a true celebration of what makes Downtown Muncie special," said Amanda Holmquist, Executive Director of Muncie Downtown Development Partnership. "There's genuinely something for everyone."

    First Thursday opening reception for Brian Gordy, Watercolors, Thursday, June 4th, 5 - 8 pm

    Gordy Fine Art and Framing Company will celebrate the Brink of Summer ArtsWalk with an opening reception for Watercolors by Brian Gordy, one of Indiana’s most accomplished watercolor painters. Brian and his wife Genny Gordy established Gordy Fine Art and Framing and this is his first solo exhibition at the gallery since 2023. Refreshments will be served, and the public is invited to attend.

    At 6:15 Gordy will give an informal talk about his work

    “Brian Gordy’s paintings remain central to the identity and legacy of this gallery,” said owners Barbara and Carl Schafer. “His work reflects decades of observation of the natural world and a deep understanding of watercolor as a medium.”

    A signature member of the American Watercolor Society, Transparent Watercolor Society of America, Watercolor Society of Indiana, and the Red River Watercolor Society, Gordy has exhibited throughout the United States and earned numerous awards for his paintings. His work is included in the permanent collections of Minnetrista, the Sheldon Swope Art Museum, and the Richmond Art Museum. He has also received the designation of Indiana Artisan for his paintings.

    Throughout his career, Gordy has painted the rivers, wetlands, forests, and wildlife of the Midwest. His celebrated series of turtle paintings continues to evolve as an exploration of light, movement, resilience, and ecological balance. “The subject of water in nature is an overarching theme in my work,” said Gordy. “I think of it as a theater where reflections, living forms, and shifting surfaces interact in ways that constantly surprise me as a painter.”

    The exhibit will be on view with works for sale in the gallery through August 29, 2026.

    Gordy Fine Art and Framing Company promotes talented artists, provides appraisals, restores antique frames, and offers expert design and craftsmanship for framing and displaying treasured family possessions and works of art.
