Original works by Jen Harmon Allen, Joe Ostraff, Rob Adamson, Al Denyer, Kay Kuzminski and Paul Stout have been added to the collection. In addition, a suite of prints purchased from Saltgrass Printmakers brings in works by Sean Caulfield, Akiko Tanaguchi, Joe Ostraff, Gary Barton, Koichi Yamamoto, Sandy Brunvand, Erik Brunvand, Stefanie Dykes and Ed Bateman.<\/p>\n<p>The works will continue to be on public display, but during tonight&#8217;s reception you&#8217;ll find them all in one place.
