If your looking for something to do before Spring
arrives in New England:
Roadside Art Exhibit features Valley Diners.
_Meet artist “Diner Don” Sawyer on Saturday, February 19th at the Precision Valley Corvette Museum, 363 River Street, Springfield, Vermont._ “Diner Don” will unveil his latest renderings of the great diners and roadside eateries of the Upper and Precision Valley at 11 AM and be on hand between 9 AM and 2 PM to discuss his work and exhibit his roadside art.
Don Sawyer is known throughout New England for both his “roadside art” series and his bucolic Vermont scenes._ He not only depicts diners in his print collection, he lives them, logging countless hours visiting, drawing, and preserving the diner culture of these historic old eateries.
Among the new works to be unveiled will be a painting of the Springfield Royal Diner, complete with rendered vintage Corvettes parked in front._ Originally from Kingston, New York, the Springfield Royal Diner is the only surviving Mahony built diner in the world._ Transported to Springfield in 2002 and completely refurbished, this magnificent diner now sits attached to the Precision Valley Corvette Museum for all to admire and enjoy._
_Other new works to be shown for the first time will highlight famous diners from throughout the Upper and Precision Valley, covering both the Vermont and New Hampshire sides of the Connecticut River._ Admission to the Museum and roadside art exhibit is free._ For additional information, call (802) 886-1400.
