The art show “Humanesque” opens May 4 and runs through May 22 at The Present Day Club, 72 Nassau Street, Princeton, and features work by the local artists’ collective Art+10. Exhibition hours will be 2-4 p.m. weekdays, except Wednesdays. An artists’ reception will be held Friday, May 4 from 5-7 p.m. and is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served.

Works featured in the show include interpretive paintings and photographs as well as themes drawn from memory. Art+10 formed seven years ago when a few artists came together to promote art in their community. The Group’s goal is to encourage and support each other’s artistic exploration. One community interaction resulted in a “paint in” of the firefighters at their volunteer fire house, Engine Company No. 1 on Chestnut Street in Princeton.

Art+10 is made up of professionals who regularly exhibit in the area, and this show includes: Priscilla Algava, Heather Barros, Jim Bongartz, Gail Bracegirdle, Betty Curtiss, Katja De Ruyter, Deborah Land, and Ryan Lilienthal.
