CCSO To Unveil Shadows Of The Mind Art Exhibit

The Collier County Sheriff’s Office has partnered with the Alzheimer’s Support Network to display a series of oil pastels depicting the experience of Alzheimer’s disease as painted by Robin Conner.

CCSO will host a reception of its fifth installment of the Community Gallery, an arts exhibit housed within the Sheriff’s Office, on Thursday, Oct. 6, from 5-6:30 p.m. The gallery is located at the administrative offices on the second floor of CCSO headquarters, 3319 U.S. 41 E., Bldg. J., East Naples.

The Alzheimer’s Support Network was formed in 1982 to provide services and support to those families coping with the disease.

The Shadows of the Mind Exhibit will run through Jan. 6, 2012.

The exhibits featured at the Community Gallery rotate every three months. Opening receptions are held for each new exhibit to continually showcase the art and partnership of the participating organization. The Sheriff’s Office headquarters is a community building and welcomes all members of the public to come and view the exhibits.
