PASCAGOULA, Miss. (WLOX) — The River Art Gallery will host a patriotic art show and reception on Saturday, June 27, to mark America’s 250th anniversary.

The event runs from 2 to 4 p.m. at the gallery on Delmas Avenue in Pascagoula. Refreshments will be served.

“We would love for people to come in, and we hope they walk away with a sense of America’s creativity and being proud of our country,” Marguerite Pivarnik said.

The show features work from several artists with pieces ranging from jewelry to painted driftwood and glass creations.

All of the artwork in the show represents American heritage, historical sites, veterans, and the flag.

“That’s what we want to express. All the sacrifices that people have made for our freedom,” Pivarnik said. “And also to celebrate the art, because art has really documented the history of America.”

The gallery is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
