MAIN ST.

Cornerstone Center for the Arts: 520 E. Main St. 

Will host the opening reception of A Nature Walk with God, featuring a collection of landscape paintings by regional artist Barbara Kuntz. The reception will take place in the newly renovated Judith Barnes Memorial Gallery on the second floor of Cornerstone Center for the Arts from 5 to 7 p.m.  

In the collection A Nature Walk with God, artist Barbara Kuntz utilizes the act of painting to explore a journey of self-expression. Drawn to nature as a place of rejuvenation, Barbara began each painting using only the memories of places she has been as inspiration. She then allows the painting to evolve into an image of its own making. This experiential process encourages the paint colors, the paint brushes, and a little technique to create work that allows the imperfections in life to exist without an eraser. Barbara has found natural recurring subjects—trees, water, rocks, and sky—within her body of work, creating a sense of solitude and peace.

Gordy Fine Art & Framing Company: 224 E. Main St.

Gindhart at MadJax: 514 E. Jackson St. 

Debra Gindhart's 2018 exhibit, Girl Power, tells of influencing cultural attitudes and the transformation of stereotypes. There is no singular medium or style that unites feminist artists—they often combine aspects from various movements and media, including conceptual art, body art, and wearable art into works that present a message about women's experiences and the need for gender equality. Gindhart uses aerosol paints, acrylics, and assemblage technique pieces. 

Debra Gindhart's Trafficked Art, Real Babes Recycle, Armed & Polite, #Metoo series, and Degradation Dolls will highlight her ArtsWalk 2018 exhibit. She will also have her Green Glam Studio collection of HAUTE COUTURE HANGERS featured in her artist show and reception.

E. WASHINGTON ST.

The Delaware County Historical Society: 120 E. Washington St. 

Will rededicate the once-lost Charles Willard statue at 5 p.m. The limestone statue of the early Muncie mercantilist was placed in a third-story alcove of the Willard Building in 1887.

After some discussion regarding the statue’s true identity, it was returned to Muncie in September.
