The Summer Gallery is free and open to the public through Sunday. Hours are 6 to 8 p.m. daily.

Wright’s painting, titled “Friendship,” is of a young girl in a white frock and white hat, seen from the back. It is among 80-some paintings on exhibit in the Council’s 20th Summer Gallery in the atrium of the Lincoln Park Performing Arts Center in Midland.

Second place, the Merit Award, went to Kathleen Miller for “Peace.”

Third place, the Juror’s Award, went to Marge Gardner for her painting “Old Economy, Ambridge.”

This “Snow Queen” is not from Frozen, but she is one of Linda Steele’s Dolls Magazine Diamond Industry Award of Excellence winners from 2017. Steele said that her doll trademark is the painted eyes, which many allege allows you to look into the soul of the doll. Most dollmakers elect to instead use the glass or acrylic eyes, as they tend to be more durable and not as much work. Snow Queen was an one-of-a-kind direct sculpted doll.

Honorable mentions were won by Ellie Gimbus, Gina Judy and Linda Sant’Eufemia.

As featured artist, a selection of Joyce Beatty’s paintings are on display in this years’s show.
