Join the Bainbridge Public Library for the June 2022 First Friday Art Walk, featuring artist David Repyak

The Bainbridge Public Library is dedicated to spreading the joy of reading and the discovery of ideas with not just our local community, but with visitors from near and afar. In addition, the library is fortunate to house beautiful local works of art both inside and outside the building. Each month the library celebrates a local artist (or artists) with an exhibit, which opens monthly on the Island’s First Friday Art Walk tour, and includes a reception hosted by the featured artist.

The Bainbridge Public Library is proud to present an exhibit by artist David Repyak 

David will host a “meet and greet” from 5pm-7pm on Friday, June 3rd to open his new exhibit, “Transportation Connection” for First Friday Art Walk

Northwest artist, David Repyak will be exhibiting his new series of abstract oil paintings and landscape watercolors, reflecting how we live, work and play aboard the Washington State ferry system. In addition, his watercolor landscapes will feature scenes in and around the local harbors of Bainbridge Island.

David’s work is influenced by the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. In addition to his paintings, he is a Montessori credentialed K-8 elementary teacher with SHINE Art Academy and earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts from Syracuse University in Syracuse, N.Y., S.U. London Center, and his K-8 teaching certification from the University of Washington. David also finds inspiration through collaboration with other artists and has studied with members of the American Watercolor Society and with professional artists from Gage Academy.

David’s work can be found via his website: Gallery (shineartacademy.com) and his Facebook Page.

David’s exhibit is available for viewing and sale at the Bainbridge Public Library throughout the month of June in the meeting room during regular library hours and on the library website, www.bainbridgepubliclibrary.org.

A portion of sales is donated to the library.
