Each portrait is a declaration of identity and aspiration—because when children see themselves reflected in the world around them, it affirms that they belong.

Please reserve online at https://commerce.cashnet.com/BALL_EMS057While local artist Ann Johnson is well known in art circles across the United States and abroad, many people do not fully understand the breadth of her experiences and accomplishments. She has led an extraordinary life, personally and professionally, marked by the kind of journey most people could only imagine. Often described as one of Muncie, Indiana's best-kept secrets, she has earned a place among the city's most notable figures.
That remarkable journey has now found a new form of expression in her recent step into authorship. Her book, "Finding Fogg", is more than a memoir---it is a reflection on a lifetime of creativity, resilience, and reinvention. Through humor and honesty, she shares the story of a Hoosier girl who turned dryer lint into a global artistic legacy.

About the Author:
Kevin Yaney is the author of "The Fourth of July", a trilogy of historical fiction books set during the Civil War. The three books tell the story of Louisa McLain and her two sons, George and Will from Delaware County. Sixty years after the war, on the Fourth of July, Louisa is in a nursing home, reading letters her sons sent her during the conflict. As the story unfolds, it is discovered that both George and Will were recruited as Union spies. They were sent perilously behind enemy lines, dressed as Confederate soldiers. They also became part of the abolitionists’ movement through the Underground Railroad, running slaves out of the South to freedom.Mr. Yaney will have his books available at the event.

First Thursday opening reception for Brian Gordy, Watercolors, Thursday, June 4th, 5 - 8 pmGordy Fine Art and Framing Company will celebrate the Brink of Summer ArtsWalk with an opening reception for Watercolors by Brian Gordy, one of Indiana’s most accomplished watercolor painters. Brian and his wife Genny Gordy established Gordy Fine Art and Framing and this is his first solo exhibition at the gallery since 2023. Refreshments will be served, and the public is invited to attend.
At 6:15 Gordy will give an informal talk about his work
“Brian Gordy’s paintings remain central to the identity and legacy of this gallery,” said owners Barbara and Carl Schafer. “His work reflects decades of observation of the natural world and a deep understanding of watercolor as a medium.”
A signature member of the American Watercolor Society, Transparent Watercolor Society of America, Watercolor Society of Indiana, and the Red River Watercolor Society, Gordy has exhibited throughout the United States and earned numerous awards for his paintings. His work is included in the permanent collections of Minnetrista, the Sheldon Swope Art Museum, and the Richmond Art Museum. He has also received the designation of Indiana Artisan for his paintings.
Throughout his career, Gordy has painted the rivers, wetlands, forests, and wildlife of the Midwest. His celebrated series of turtle paintings continues to evolve as an exploration of light, movement, resilience, and ecological balance. “The subject of water in nature is an overarching theme in my work,” said Gordy. “I think of it as a theater where reflections, living forms, and shifting surfaces interact in ways that constantly surprise me as a painter.”
The exhibit will be on view with works for sale in the gallery through August 29, 2026.
Gordy Fine Art and Framing Company promotes talented artists, provides appraisals, restores antique frames, and offers expert design and craftsmanship for framing and displaying treasured family possessions and works of art. Business hours: Monday through Friday, 9 am – 5:30 pm, Saturday, 10 am – 3 pm. Gordy Fine Art and Framing Company is located at 224 East Main Street, next door to Muncie Civic Theatre.
