The Visual Arts Club of Dataw Island hosts four art shows each year and recently celebrated 10 years of artistic endeavor with a round-up of members’ art. Paying homage to the founding members — better known as “The Cowboys” — the exhibit featured works of artists of all ages in all media.

A gallery tour, “What Were They Thinking?”, gave visitors a glimpse into the inspiration behind various submissions. The Viewers Choice awards to Anne Kennedy, Maynard Pearlstine and Bill Tremitier show the diversity and skill represented in this show. Each exhibit is on display for three months in the Dataw Island Community Center.
