The Vanessa Lacy Gallery, located in the historic Livestock Exchange Building in the Stockyards District of Kansas City, is featuring a juried exhibition, ‘Nocturnal Illuminations.’ Art that draws us in like moths to a flame, ‘Nocturnal Illuminations’ spotlights artists whose works glow. Join us as we come together to celebrate the beauty, mystery, and excitement of the night. This dark and dreamy collection features local and national artists, and will be available to view online at www.vanessalacygallery.com and in person from September 13th to October 11th.

The opening reception will be on Third Fridays, September 13th at 5 pm. If you don’t like the busy atmosphere of First Fridays in Kansas City, but love art, Third Fridays at the Stockyards and Columbus Park offer plenty of parking, and a plethora of amazing participating galleries, musicians, and artists at a laid back pace. Be sure to stop by Stockyards Brewing Co., as well as the other great restaurants in the area, including: Amigoni Urban Winery, The Golden Ox, Rockstar, Lucky Boys, and Pinoy.
