“Lions and Tigers and Tabbies! Oh Meow!” Local artists let their creative cat “out of the bag” in a diverse array of mediums for the purr-fectly paw-some MeWOW: Fabulous Felines exhibit at Del Ray Artisans gallery. Come see the exhibit to marvel at the power and fascination of cat imagery in art. These furry, mysterious, independent, beautiful felines have inundated history, mythology, literature, advertising, cinema, pop culture and pet owners for centuries.
