THE SORDONI ART GALLERY
of Wilkes College is presenting its
newest exhibit, ‘Centralia: Photo-
graphs by Stephen Perloff” now
through Sunday, July 13. The
exhibit consists of a collection of
photographs depicting the town of
Centralia and the impact of its
infamous mine fire on the commu-
nity.
“Centralia” is the result of years
of work by photographer Stephen
Perloff, a Kingston native who now
makes his home in suburban Phila-
delphia. Growing up in the Wyo-
ming Valley gave Perloff a special
affinity for the plight of Centralia,
and a unique perspective when cap-
turing the situation on film. This
documentary showing features Per-
loff’s views of the town and its
people, who, in the phtographer’s
words, ‘‘have been forced
into...having to choose between
their fear for their health and lives
and their love for their commu-
nity.” “Centralia” is intended to
illustrate that conflict.
Gallery hours for ‘‘Centralia:
Photographs by Stephen Perloff”
are Monday through Friday, noon to
5 p.m. and Thursday evenings until
9 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
and Sunday 1 to 5 p.m.

THE ART GALLERY at College
Misericordia will be the host gallery
for a national exhibit of miniature
art painted by members of the
Cider Painters of America. The
group, which was begun by a group
of 10 local artists in 1983, now boasts
nearly 200 members in over 20
states. The Cider Painters have
made national news several times
in art circles, since they are the
only group of artists dedicated to
miniature art to be organized with
local chapters. The Cider Painters,
through national co-ordinator Sue
Hand, was also instrumental in
founding the Australian Society of
Miniature Art in New South Wales,
Australia.
The members paint in the tradi-
tion of miniaturism, following the
belief that any subject suitable for a
large scale painting, even a mural,
can be scaled down on canvas or
paper to create a miniature master-
piece. The tiny paintings create the
illusion of space and depth within a
small surface area. All Cider paint-
ings are 3 by 5 inches or smaller,
and many are even created with a
bit of cider mixed in the medium.
Many members use magnifying
lenses, and most use extra fine
brushes for the meticulous work.
The exhibit is open to the public
June 29 through July 17. There is no
charge for admission. Gallery tours
with Sue Hand, National Coordina-
tor of the Cider Painters of Amer-
ica, are available by appointment
for groups of eight or more persons,
also free of charge.
