Art Guild, in collaboration with Laurita Winery, invites you

the multi-talented members of the Allentown Art Guild. The
exhibiting artists reflect a wide range of styles: non-representational
abstract, impressionism, realism, expressionism and a wide
variety of subject matter with New Beginnings being the common
theme.
The Allentown
Art Guild is comprised of 25 plus members - full-time and
part-time artists from the Allentown, Cream Ridge, Perrineville,
Roosevelt and East Windsor areas. Since the Guild was formed

the community.
