On Exhibit This Month
Cindy Chinn
This month we welcome Cindy Chinn from Chester, Nebraska to Gallery 92 West. Cindy is a full-time artist and has been an artist her entire life. She has worked in graphic design, video game design, the slot machine industry, and more. She has even developed light and sound shows for the (at the time) largest video screen in the world. Now Cindy's passion is creating new pieces from mostly recycled items like pencils, scrap metal, and bicycle parts. She wants to help people see the possibilities of what "can be" and inspire those who interact with her art.
Cindy Chinn has earned the title of "Medium Magician," pushing creative boundaries, working with everything from pencil carvings to large-scale sculptures, murals, and metal art. Cindy's art has found its way into museums, public installations, and private collections worldwide, and she takes great pride in creating works that resonate with a wide range of audiences.
Please join us for the Artists' Spotlight Reception featuring Cindy Chinn on Thursday, September 3rd from 5-7pm.

The Dugan Gallery

This gallery was named in honor of Bill and Jane Dugan, who have served as business owners and pillars of the community by being active on numerous boards and with their philanthropic support of many local organizations. Their longtime support of Gallery 92 West is so appreciated.
The Barbara Tellatin Gallery
About the Gallery
The Barbara Tellatin Gallery is lovingly named after longtime FAAA Member and Fremont artist and art teacher Barbara Tellatin. Barbara's husband purchased the naming rights to this space for the 2024 calendar year to honor her memory in the building and with the organization that she loved so much. Being the center of the guests' gathering at receptions and luncheons makes this gallery a favorite among exhibiting artists.
