Exhibit celebrates pair of sculptors
An art exhibit celebrating the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Sculptors Workshop is on display this month in downtown Edmonds.
The exhibit can be viewed from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays through the end of the month at the Frances Anderson Center, 700 Main St.
The artwork in the exhibit was crafted by Rose Morgan and David Murphey, who were co-directors of the Sculptors Workshop in the 1970s. Murphey was one of the group’s first instructors after it was formed in 1967.
Morgan died in January, and Murphey, 87, retired early this year.
